Can I use this for compliance auditing?

Yes, the skill provides patterns aligned with CIS Benchmarks and NIST frameworks to help secure clusters for regulated environments.

Is service mesh security included?

Yes, the skill covers Istio security features like PeerAuthentication for mTLS and AuthorizationPolicies for fine-grained service-to-service access control.

Can it help with RBAC configuration?

Absolutely. It generates namespace-scoped Roles and cluster-wide ClusterRoles based on the principle of least privilege, along with the necessary RoleBindings.

How does this skill handle NetworkPolicies?

It provides templates for default-deny-all strategies and specific rules for allowing legitimate traffic between microservices while blocking unauthorized access.

Does it support the latest Pod Security Standards?

Yes, it includes implementation guides for the Namespace-labeled Pod Security Standards (Privileged, Baseline, and Restricted) which replaced PodSecurityPolicies.

Security & Testing

Implements production-grade Kubernetes security using NetworkPolicies, Pod Security Standards, and RBAC to secure clusters and enforce compliance.

Kubernetes Security Policies is a specialized skill designed to automate the implementation of defense-in-depth security across Kubernetes clusters. It provides comprehensive patterns for configuring network segmentation, establishing Pod Security Standards (Privileged, Baseline, and Restricted), and enforcing least-privilege RBAC. By leveraging this skill, developers and SREs can quickly secure multi-tenant environments, implement OPA Gatekeeper constraints, and configure Istio-based mTLS and authorization policies to meet industry compliance frameworks like CIS Benchmarks and NIST.

Key Features
