In today's Kubernetes environments, ensuring security, compliance and best practices at scale can be complex. Traditional admission controllers rely on custom webhooks and intricate coding, making policy enforcement cumbersome. Kyverno, a Kubernetes-native policy engine, streamlines this process by allowing declarative, YAML-based policies without requiring external webhooks.

This session will demonstrate how Kyverno automates policy enforcement, validates resource configurations and dynamically mutates workloads. We will explore real-world use cases, including restricting privileged containers, enforcing Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) requirements and auto-generating security policies, helping teams achieve robust governance with minimal effort.
