First Problem: "I need to start a manual process of installing the tenable.io agent everytime that a node joins my cluster"

Second Problem: "I need to implement tenable.io agent in a pod and use this pod to scan the node filesystem"

Solution: Create an unprivilleged DaemonSet POD with tenable.io agent and change the filesystem root of the process to the node filesystem

Description

This repository contains Kubernetes resource files for deploying the Tenable agent as a DaemonSet in a Kubernetes cluster. The Tenable agent runs on all nodes in the cluster and provides visibility into the security posture of your cluster.

Prerequisites

Deployment

  1. Create a Sealed Secrets key inside your cluster. Replace YOUR TENABLE KEY GOES HERE with your tenable.io sync token and convert it to a base64 format:
echo -n '{"link":{"host": "cloud.tenable.com","port": 443,"key": "YOUR TENABLE KEY GOES HERE","name": "$NODE_NAME", "groups": ["agent-group"]}}' | base64
  1. Insert the base64 encoded string in the secrets.yaml file and use kubeseal to encrypt it:
cat secret.yaml | kubeseal \
    --controller-namespace kube-system \
    --controller-name sealed-secrets \
    --format yaml \
    > sealed-secret.yaml
  1. Apply the sealed secrets to your cluster:
kubectl apply -f sealed-secret.yaml
  1. Deploy the DaemonSet with the following command:
kubectl apply -f manifest/tenable-pod.yaml

After a few minutes, you should see your node information in your tenable.io sensors list

If you want to build the image in another registry, you can use the following command:

cd Dockerfile
docker build -t tenable-agent-image .

Important: Remember to change the reference of the image in tenable-pod.yaml if you build the dockerfile locally

Testing

To verify that the Tenable agent is running on all nodes in the cluster, run:

kubectl get pods -n tenable

You should see one pod for each node in the cluster, with a status of Running.

If you encounter any issues, you can check the logs for the Tenable agent pods using:

kubectl logs -n tenable <pod-name>

Maintenance

To update the Tenable agent image, modify the image field in the tenable-pod.yaml file and apply the changes using kubectl apply -f tenable-pod.yaml.
