enforce

Comprehensive branch protection configuration patterns with enforcement automation. Security tiers, IaC at scale, GitHub App enforcement, audit reporting, and bypass controls.

Block non-compliant manifests at merge time using policy-platform container in CI. Automate Kyverno validation across environments with zero configuration drift.

Make security mandatory through automation. Branch protection, pre-commit hooks, status checks, policy-as-code, and SLSA provenance for SOC 2 compliance.

Phased rollout plan for SDLC hardening. Foundation to runtime enforcement in 90 days. Prioritized by risk and audit importance.

Incident response playbook templates for Kubernetes. Detection, containment, remediation, and post-incident procedures with decision trees and validation steps.

Master JMESPath for Kyverno policies. Query nested resources, build complex conditions, and validate Kubernetes workloads with production-tested patterns.

Install Kyverno, create validation policies, and understand audit vs enforce modes for Kubernetes admission control.

Kyverno generation policy templates that auto-create supporting resources like NetworkPolicies, ResourceQuotas, and PodDisruptionBudgets for new workloads and namespaces.

Kyverno image validation: registry allowlists, digests, signatures, and CVE scanning gates for K8s supply chain security.

Kyverno mutation policies that auto-inject labels, sidecars, and configuration into Kubernetes workloads at admission time.

Kyverno network security policies that enforce NetworkPolicy requirements, Ingress rules, and Service restrictions in Kubernetes.

Kyverno pod security policies enforcing Pod Security Standards, privilege restrictions, and security profiles for Kubernetes workloads.

Kyverno policy templates overview. 28 production-ready policies for pod security, image validation, resource limits, network security, mutation, and generation.

Kyverno resource governance policies enforcing CPU/memory limits, HPA requirements, and storage constraints for Kubernetes workloads.

Run Kyverno policy validation locally with policy-platform containers. Zero local setup, same tools as CI, instant feedback before committing code changes.

Aggregate Kyverno policies from security, DevOps, and application teams into unified enforcement. Build multi-stage containers using OCI repo dependencies.

OPA image security policies for container registry allowlisting, digest enforcement, and signature verification in Kubernetes.

OPA pod security policies preventing privileged containers, restricting Linux capabilities, and enforcing security contexts in Kubernetes.

OPA Gatekeeper policy templates overview. 20 production-ready constraint templates for pod security, image validation, RBAC, and resource governance.

OPA RBAC policies preventing cluster-admin privilege escalation, restricting privileged verbs, and blocking wildcard permissions.

OPA resource governance policies enforcing CPU/memory limits, ResourceQuota compliance, LimitRange validation, and storage constraints.

Deploy pre-commit hooks for secrets detection, branch protection with required reviews, commit signature verification, and org-wide distribution strategies.

Automation phase SDLC hardening overview. CI/CD gates, SBOM generation, vulnerability scanning, SLSA provenance, and automated evidence collection for secure software supply chain enforcement.

Runtime enforcement phase overview. Policy-as-code with Kyverno, resource limits, image source verification, security context enforcement, and policy observability for production Kubernetes hardening.

Audit evidence collection and compliance validation. Automated archival, OpenSSF Scorecard monitoring, SLSA verification, and continuous proof of controls.

Enforce security and compliance policies across local dev, CI pipelines, and runtime admission. Three-layer Kyverno enforcement eliminates policy gaps entirely.

Manage Kyverno policy lifecycle from creation to enforcement. Add policies safely, monitor compliance, handle exceptions, and maintain GitOps-driven operations.

Production-ready policy template library: 48 battle-tested policies (28 Kyverno + 20 OPA). Pod security, image validation, RBAC, resource governance, network security, and CI/CD integration.

Build policy-platform containers that aggregate Kyverno policies from multiple OCI sources. Multi-stage Docker builds for local dev and CI validation.

CI/CD pipelines as merge gates. Tests, security scans, and linting must pass before code reaches production. Automated validation that satisfies auditors.

Deploy Kyverno admission control as final safety net before production. Install admission webhooks, policy reporters, and continuous compliance background scans.

Deploy defense-in-depth SDLC hardening across four phases: pre-commit hooks, CI/CD gates, runtime enforcement, and continuous audit evidence collection systems.

Complete SLSA implementation playbook: clarify SLSA vs SBOM confusion, classify runner configurations, implement verification workflows, and adopt incrementally from Level 1 to Level 3.

SLSA provenance for Go, Node.js, and Python: binary builds, package publishing, container images, and dependency verification with cryptographic integrity proofs.
