Install Policy Controller | Google Cloud

This page shows you how to install Policy Controller. Policy Controller checks, audits, and enforces your clusters' compliance with policies related to security, regulations, or business rules.

This page is for IT administrators and Operators who want to ensure that all resources running within the cloud platform meet organizational compliance requirements by providing and maintaining automation to audit or enforce. To learn more about common roles and example tasks that we reference in Google Cloud content, see Common GKE user roles and tasks.

Policy Controller is available if you use Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) Enterprise edition. To learn more, see Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) Enterprise edition pricing.

Before you start, make sure you have performed the following tasks:

1. Install and initialize the Google Cloud CLI, which provides the gcloud, kubectl, and nomos commands used in these instructions. If you previously installed the gcloud CLI, get the latest version by running gcloud components update. If you use Cloud Shell, Google Cloud CLI comes pre-installed.

2. Ensure open source Open Policy Agent Gatekeeper is not installed on your cluster. If it is, uninstall Gatekeeper before installing Policy Controller.

3. Enable the required APIs:

4. Create, or make sure you have access to, a cluster running a Kubernetes version of 1.14.x or later. Policy Controller might appear to run on versions of Kubernetes earlier than 1.14.x, but the product does not behave correctly.

5. Grant the required IAM roles to the user registering the cluster.

6. If you plan to use the Google Cloud CLI to configure Policy Controller, register your cluster to a fleet now. If you plan to use the Google Cloud console, register your clusters when you install Policy Controller.

7. If you're using GKE attached clusters, ensure that your AKS cluster does not have the Azure Policy add-on and avoid labeling namespaces with the key control-plane.

8. If you're using Google Distributed Cloud on VMware or bare metal, ensure that you are installing Policy Controller on a user cluster. Policy Controller can't be installed on an admin cluster.

To install Policy Controller in the Google Cloud console, complete the following steps:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the GKE Enterprise Policy page under the Posture Management section.

   Go to Policy

2. Click add Configure Policy Controller.

3. Optional: To change the default fleet settings, click Customize fleet settings. In the dialog that appears, do the following:

   1. In the Add/Edit policy bundles section, include or exclude a policy bundle by clicking the relevant toggle. Warning: After you choose a method to apply policy bundles (manual, gcloud CLI, or Google Cloud console), using a different method to install policy bundles can cause errors in your environment.

   2. In the Edit Policy Controller configuration section, do the following:

      1. To enable the mutation webhook, select the Enable mutation webhook checkbox. This feature is not compatible with Autopilot clusters.
      2. In the Audit interval box, enter the period in seconds between two consecutive audits.

      3. In the Exemptible namespaces box, enter a list of namespaces. Policy Controller ignores objects in these namespaces. This feature is not compatible with Autopilot clusters.

         Best practice:

         Exempt system namespaces to avoid errors in your environment. You can find the instructions to exempt namespaces and a list of common namespaces created by Google Cloud services on the Exclude namespaces page.

      4. To enable referential constraints, select the Enable Constraint Templates that reference to objects other than the object currently being evaluated checkbox.

      5. In the Version list, select the Policy Controller version that you want to use.

   3. Click Save changes.

4. Click Configure.

5. In the confirmation dialog, click Confirm. If you haven't previously enabled Policy Controller, clicking Confirm enables the anthospolicycontroller.googleapis.com API and installs Policy Controller on your clusters.

6. Optional: Sync existing clusters to the default settings:

   1. In the Settings tab, click Sync to fleet settings.
   2. In the Clusters in the fleet list, select the clusters that you want to sync and then click Sync to fleet settings. This operation can take a few minutes to complete.

You are redirected to the Policy Controller Settings tab. When Policy Controller is installed and configured on your clusters, the status columns show Installed check_circle. This can take several minutes.

Enable Policy Controller by running the following command:

gcloud container fleet policycontroller enable \
    --memberships=MEMBERSHIP_NAME

You can set additional fields to configure Policy Controller. For example, you might want to tell Policy Controller to exempt some namespaces from enforcement. For a full list of fields you can configure, see the Policy Controller Google Cloud CLI documentation or run gcloud container fleet policycontroller enable --help.

Set fleet-level settings for Policy Controller by completing the following steps:

1. Create a file named fleet-default.yaml that contains the default configurations for Policy Controller. The installSpec field is required to enable fleet-level defaults. This example shows the options you can configure:

   # cat fleet-default.yaml
   
    policyControllerHubConfig:
     installSpec: INSTALL_SPEC_ENABLED 
     # Uncomment to set default deployment-level configurations.
     # deploymentConfigs:
     #   admission:
     #     containerResources:
     #       limits:
     #        cpu: 1000m
     #         memory: 8Gi
     #       requests:
     #         cpu: 500m
     #         memory: 4Gi
     # Uncomment to set policy bundles that you want to install by default.
     # policyContent:
     #   bundles:
     #     cis-k8s-v1.5.1:
     #       exemptedNamespaces:
     #       - "namespace-name"
     # Uncomment to exempt namespaces from admission.
     # exemptableNamespaces:
     # - "namespace-name"
     # Uncomment to enable support for referential constraints
     # referentialRulesEnabled: true
     # Uncomment to disable audit, adjust value to set audit interval
     # auditIntervalSeconds: 0
     # Uncomment to log all denies and dryrun failures
     # logDeniesEnabled: true
     # Uncomment to enable mutation
     # mutationEnabled: true
     # Uncomment to adjust the value to set the constraint violation limit
     # constraintViolationLimit: 20
     # ... other fields ...
   

   Best practice:

   Exempt system namespaces to avoid errors in your environment. You can find the instructions to exempt namespaces and a list of common namespaces created by Google Cloud services on the Exclude namespaces page.

2. Apply the default configuration to your fleet:

   gcloud container fleet policycontroller enable \
     --fleet-default-member-config=fleet-default.yaml
   

3. To verify that the configuration was applied, run the following command:

   gcloud container fleet policycontroller describe
   

4. To remove the fleet-level default configuration, run the following command:

   gcloud container fleet policycontroller enable \
     --no-fleet-default-member-config
   

To enable Policy Controller across your fleet with the default template library installed, refer to the following example:

You can pass multiple bundle blocks to install any of the bundles listed in the Policy Controller bundles overview.

To learn more about using Terraform, see Terraform support for Policy Controller.

After installing Policy Controller, you can verify that it completed successfully.

Complete the following steps:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the GKE Enterprise Policy page under the Posture Management section.

   Go to Policy

2. Under the Settings tab, in the cluster table, check the Policy controller status column. A successful installation has a status of Installed check_circle.

Run the following command:

gcloud container fleet policycontroller describe --memberships=MEMBERSHIP_NAME

A successful installation shows membershipStates: MEMBERSHIP_NAME: policycontroller: state: ACTIVE.

When you install Policy Controller, the constraint template library is installed by default. This installation can take several minutes to complete. You can verify that the template library completed successfully.

Complete the following steps:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the GKE Enterprise Policy page under the Posture Management section.

   Go to Policy

2. Under the Settings tab, in the cluster table, select the number listed in the Bundles installed column. In the Policy content status pane, a successful installation of the template library has a status of Installed check_circle.

Run the following command:

kubectl get constrainttemplates

You should see output similar to the following example:

NAME                                      AGE
k8sallowedrepos                           84s
k8scontainerlimits                        84s
k8spspallowprivilegeescalationcontainer   84s
...[OUTPUT TRUNCATED]...

When an individual constraint template is installed correctly, its status.created field is true.

If you're using Policy Controller with Config Sync, you should be aware of the following interactions with resources stored in your source of truth, like a Git repository, that are synced by Config Sync:

• You cannot sync a constraint template that is also part of the template library unless the constraint template library is disabled.

  Caution: Disabling the template library might remove some of your constraint's dependencies. For more information, see Create constraints.

• If you want to sync the Config resource stored in the gatekeeper-system namespace, then you must only define the Config resource in the source of truth. The gatekeeper-system Namespace must not be defined with it.

By default, Policy Controller attempts to export metrics to both Prometheus and Cloud Monitoring. You might need to complete additional configuration steps, such as granting permissions, to allow Policy Controller to export metrics. For more information, see Use Policy Controller metrics.

For information on uninstalling or installing constraint templates, their associated constraints, or the constraint template library, see Create constraints.

You can configure Policy Controller to ignore objects within a namespace. For more information, see Exclude namespaces from Policy Controller.

Policy Controller also acts as a mutating webhook. For more information, see Mutate resources.

To discover which version of Gatekeeper Policy Controller is using, view the image tag by running the following command:

kubectl get deployments -n gatekeeper-system gatekeeper-controller-manager \
  -o="jsonpath={.spec.template.spec.containers[0].image}"

The Git tag (or hash) used to build Gatekeeper and the ConfigManagement Operator version number are included in the image tag as follows:

.../gatekeeper:VERSION_NUMBER-GIT_TAG.gBUILD_NUMBER

For example, for the following image:

gcr.io/config-management-release/gatekeeper:anthos1.3.2-480baac.g0

• anthos1.3.2 is the version number.
• 480baac is the Git tag.
• 0 is the build number.

Before you upgrade Policy Controller, check the release notes for details on what's changed between versions.

To upgrade Policy Controller, complete the following steps:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the GKE Enterprise Policy page under the Posture Management section.

   Go to Policy

2. Under the Settings tab, next to the cluster whose version you want to upgrade, select edit Edit configuration.
3. Expand the Edit Policy Controller configuration menu.
4. From the Version drop-down list, select the version that you want to upgrade to.
5. Click Save changes.

Run the following command:

gcloud container fleet policycontroller update \
  --version=VERSION \
  --memberships=MEMBERSHIP_NAME

Replace the following:

• VERSION: the version that you want to upgrade to
• MEMBERSHIP_NAME: the membership name that you chose when you registered your cluster. You can find the membership name by running gcloud container fleet memberships list.

Follow these steps to uninstall Policy Controller from your clusters.

To disable Policy Controller on your clusters, complete the following tasks:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the GKE Enterprise Policy page under the Posture Management section.

   Go to Policy

2. Under the Settings tab, in the cluster table, select Edit edit in the Edit configuration column.
3. In the cluster pane, expand the About Policy Controller menu.
4. Select Uninstall Policy Controller.
5. Confirm the uninstall by following the instructions in the confirmation dialog and selecting Confirm.

When Policy Controller is uninstalled, the status columns show Not installed do_not_disturb_on.

To uninstall Policy Controller, run the following command:

gcloud container fleet policycontroller disable \
  --memberships=MEMBERSHIP_NAME

Replace MEMBERSHIP_NAME with the membership name of the registered cluster to disable Policy Controller on. You can specify multiple memberships separated by a comma.

Policy Controller includes highly privileged workloads. The permissions for these workloads are covered in the Open Policy Agent Gatekeeper operations documentation.
