+## Secure Kubernetes defaults
+
+For cluster security, only users and service accounts granted the `cluster-admin` ClusterRole for 
+all Kubernetes namespaces via a ClusterRoleBinding can deploy pods with privileged options. This prevents a
+platform user from being able to bypass the Universal Control Plane Security Model.
+
+These privileged options include: 
+
+  - `PodSpec.hostIPC` - Prevents a user from deploying a pod in the host's IPC
+    Namespace.
+  - `PodSpec.hostNetwork` - Prevents a user from deploying a pod in the host's
+    Network Namespace.
+  - `PodSpec.hostPID` - Prevents a user from deploying a pod in the host's PID
+    Namespace.
+  - `SecurityContext.allowPrivilegeEscalation` - Prevents a child process
+    of a container from gaining more privileges than its parent.
+  - `SecurityContext.capabilities` - Prevents additional  [Linux
+    Capabilities](https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/security/#linux-kernel-capabilities)
+    from being added to a pod.
+  - `SecurityContext.privileged` - Prevents a user from deploying a [Privileged
+    Container](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#runtime-privilege-and-linux-capabilities).
+  - `Volume.hostPath` - Prevents a user from mounting a path from the host into
+    the container. This could be a file, a directory, or even the Docker Socket.
+
+If a user without a cluster admin role tries to deploy a pod with any of these
+privileged options, an error similar to the following example is displayed:
+
+```bash
+Error from server (Forbidden): error when creating "pod.yaml": pods "mypod" is forbidden: user "<user-id>" is not an admin and does not have permissions to use privileged mode for resource
+```
