Set top-priority policies as guard rails to avoid interference with the microsegmentation of specific applications and namespaces. ![Policies Board Screenshot](https://www.tigera.io/app/uploads/2022/09/Policies-Board-04.png) ### Policy Automation Specify security and observability as code (SOaC). SOaC uses Kubernetes primitives and declarative models using the same versioning that teams use for source code. Ensures identical security and observability for all components, regardless of deployment, distribution, or container type. ![Recommend Policy Screenshot](https://www.tigera.io/app/uploads/2022/09/Recommend-Policy-3.png) ### Policy Recommendations Quickly implement security policies with just one click—no coding necessary. The policy engine recommends policies based on the traffic flow of your microservices. All recommended policies can be modified before enforcement. ![Policies Board Screenshot](https://www.tigera.io/app/uploads/2023/05/Policies-Board-06-with-border.png) ### Policy Dashboard and Audit Reports Get real-time metrics on how policies are being evaluated within and across policy tiers. View all active and inactive security policies for your Kubernetes cluster with a hierarchy based on roles and permissions in one interface. Export detailed policy change log reports for audit and compliance purposes. ![Edit Policy - Preview Policy Impact Screenshot](https://www.tigera.io/app/uploads/2023/01/Edit-Policy_Preview-Policy-Impact.png) ### Staged Policies and Impact Preview Preview and stage policies prior to policy enforcement to secure workloads and understand policies’ impact on the application’s performance and security posture. Obtain immediate feedback on policy rule changes before enforcing in the production environment. ## Available on Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Marketplace Get started right away on Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud—every Calico component you need to get up and running is ready to go.
