Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes generating, by a pod deployment tool, a security context profile, associating, by the pod deployment tool, the security context profile with a deployment rule, and associating, by the pod deployment tool, a vulnerability level with the deployment rule. The method also includes identifying, by the pod deployment tool, pod policies associated with a pod located within a cluster of a network and analyzing, by the pod deployment tool, conditions of the deployment rule using the pod policies. The conditions may be associated with the security context profile and the vulnerability level. The method further includes determining, by the pod deployment tool, whether to allow deployment of the pod within the network in response to analyzing the conditions of the deployment rule.
