Kubernetes Security Context Demystified

Imagine you're deploying an app in Kubernetes, and you want to ensure it doesn't misbehave or get exploited. Just like you lock your front door at night, Kubernetes gives you a way to lock down containers using something called a Security Context.

It's like giving each pod a security badge that says: “Here’s what I can and can’t do.”
