Kubernetes Newly Seen TCP Workload Communication
This analytic identifies newly observed TCP communication between source and destination workloads within a Kubernetes cluster. It leverages Network Performance Monitoring metrics to compare recent network activity with historical data (past 30 days) to detect new inter-workload communications. Such new connections can indicate changes in application behavior or potential security threats, including unauthorized access, lateral movement, privilege escalation, data exfiltration, or disruption of critical services.
