Versions:
Kyverno 1.17.1 is a Kubernetes-native policy engine that enables cluster operators to enforce security, compliance, and best-practice rules by validating, mutating, and generating configuration manifests at admission time and through continuous background scans. Because Kyverno represents every policy as a standard Kubernetes custom resource, teams can leverage familiar YAML syntax and existing tool chains—kubectl, kustomize, GitOps pipelines—without learning a domain-specific language. Typical use cases include blocking non-compliant images, injecting mandatory sidecars or labels, auto-generating NetworkPolicies or LimitRanges, and remediating drift across fleets of clusters. The software’s admission webhooks intercept create, update, and delete requests, while background controllers periodically audit live objects to ensure continued conformance. Since its first release, six major versions have refined performance, added rule types such as verify-image attestations, and introduced policy exceptions for flexible overrides. As an open-source Cloud-Native / DevOps utility, Kyverno integrates cleanly with CI/CD workflows and can be installed directly on any Kubernetes distribution. Kyverno is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are supplied through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
