This document describes a threat finding type in Security Command Center. Threat findings are generated by threat detectors when they detect a potential threat in your cloud resources. For a full list of available threat findings, see Threat findings index.
Overview
Someone deployed a workload (for example, a Pod or Deployment) in
the kube-system or kube-public namespaces. These namespaces are critical
for GKE cluster operations, and unauthorized workloads could compromise
cluster stability or security.
Event Threat Detection is the source of this finding.
