Secure Your Kubernetes Clusters with OPA Gatekeeper: Policy and Governance for K8s

In this video, we explore enhancing the security of your Kubernetes clusters using OPA and OPA Gatekeeper, making it essential viewing for anyone interested in Kubernetes security and CNCF projects.

Highlights include the importance of creating security policies, an overview of Open Policy Agent (OPA) and its functionalities, an in-depth look at OPA Gatekeeper (a CNCF project extending OPA to Kubernetes), and exploring the Gatekeeper library with prebuilt constraints. Additionally, you'll learn how to leverage observability signals from Gatekeeper to monitor and enforce policies effectively.
