How does it help with compliance?

The skill follows CIS Kubernetes Benchmarks and NIST frameworks, helping you implement required controls like audit logging, secrets encryption, and node authentication.

Can I use this for multi-tenant cluster isolation?

Absolutely. The skill provides specific templates for namespace-level isolation using NetworkPolicies and granular RBAC to ensure tenants cannot access each others' resources.

Does this skill support the latest Pod Security Standards?

Yes, it focuses on the modern Kubernetes Pod Security Standards (Privileged, Baseline, and Restricted) which have replaced the deprecated PodSecurityPolicy.

Does it include service mesh security?

Yes, it includes configurations for Istio, including PeerAuthentication for mTLS and AuthorizationPolicies for service-to-service access control.

Security & Testing

Implements production-grade Kubernetes security policies including NetworkPolicy, RBAC, and Pod Security Standards.

About

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for securing Kubernetes clusters by enforcing defense-in-depth principles. It enables developers and DevOps engineers to implement sophisticated network segmentation, least-privilege RBAC configurations, and strict Pod Security Standards. By leveraging industry benchmarks like CIS and NIST, the skill automates the creation of secure manifests, admission control policies via OPA Gatekeeper, and mTLS configurations for service meshes, ensuring clusters remain compliant and resilient against internal and external threats.
