Kubernetes Policy Enforcement with Kyverno

Managing security and compliance in Kubernetes can be complex, but declarative policies make it manageable. Kyverno simplifies this by using native Kubernetes resources to validate, mutate, and generate configurations without writing complex code. This text-based course guides you from the absolute basics of policy engines to writing, testing, and deploying production-ready Kyverno policies. You will gain the skills to enforce organizational standards, automate resource generation, and secure your clusters. What you'll learn: - Understand the fundamentals of Kubernetes admission controllers and policy engines. - Install and configure Kyverno inside a Kubernetes cluster using modern best practices. - Write validation policies to block non-compliant resource deployments. - Create mutation policies to automatically inject default configurations. - Generate resources dynamically when new namespaces are created. - Test and validate policies locally using the Kyverno CLI in your CI/CD pipeline. The course begins with essential terminology and core architecture concepts before walking you through step-by-step policy examples and configuration scenarios. It is designed for developers, DevOps engineers, and system administrators looking to secure their clusters, with no prior policy engine experience required.
