Is it safe to expose dashboard to the world?

Hi guys! I’m very new to k8s so sorry for maybe some noob questions, and one very first thing I want to know is why I can’t find any installation guide which would expose k8s dashboard to the world? Looks like it has a nice and secure authentication mechanism. So why not? Or did I miss something?

Here’s a good guide to doing that from Heptio, https://blog.heptio.com/on-securing-the-kubernetes-dashboard-16b09b1b7aca .

Exposing the dashboard publicly if not secured properly can lead to some undesirable consequences, see the tesla breach.
