What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the critical need to secure Kubernetes clusters and workloads by implementing robust security measures like Pod Security Standards, Security Contexts, and Network Policies.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Pod Security Standards: Enforces security best practices at the pod level, restricting potentially unsafe configurations.
• Security Context: Defines privilege and access control settings for Pods and Containers, ensuring least privilege.
• Network Policies: Controls network traffic flow between pods and from external sources, enhancing network segmentation.
• RBAC: Manages authorization for users and service accounts, enforcing the principle of least privilege.
• Use Case: When deploying sensitive applications to Kubernetes, use this skill to ensure that pods run with minimal privileges, network access is restricted, and sensitive operations are properly authorized.

Quick Start

Apply the provided Kubernetes manifest to enforce restricted Pod Security Standards on the 'production' namespace.
