## Design Overview
|

A service account binds together several things:
|

- a *name*, understood by users, and perhaps by peripheral systems, for an identity
|
||||
- a *principal* that can be authenticated and (authorized)[../authorization.md]
|
||||
- a *principal* that can be authenticated and [authorized](../authorization.md)

- a [security context](./security_contexts.md), which defines the Linux Capabilities, User IDs, Groups IDs, and other

capabilities and controls on interaction with the file system and OS.

- A Human typically keeps credentials on a machine that is not part of the cluster and so not subject to automatic

management. A VM with a role/service-account can have its credentials automatically managed.

- the identity of a Pod cannot in general be mapped to a single human.
