Overview
Containers instantiated from container images and running in pods in a Kubernetes cluster are executing by default with container image configuration, (for example, the user and the group various container processes run under are by default specified with the USER directive in the container image), in non-privileged mode and using a pre-defined set of Kernel capabilities. The pod and container security contexts are a declarative method to modify all these run-time elements.
