# OpenFGA Operator

A Kubernetes operator for managing [OpenFGA](https://openfga.dev/) instances.
A security-first Kubernetes operator for managing [OpenFGA](https://openfga.dev/) instances with enterprise-grade protection against malicious code injection and comprehensive security controls.

## Overview

This operator provides a Kubernetes-native way to deploy and manage OpenFGA (Fine-Grained Authorization) instances in your cluster. It uses Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) to define OpenFGA instances and automatically creates and manages the necessary Kubernetes resources.
The OpenFGA Operator provides a Kubernetes-native way to deploy and manage OpenFGA (Fine-Grained Authorization) instances with industry-leading security features. Built with a security-first approach, it implements comprehensive admission controllers, malicious code analysis, and cryptographic verification systems to ensure the highest level of security for authorization infrastructure.

## Security Implementation

### Admission Controller Setup

The OpenFGA Operator includes a comprehensive admission controller for security validation:

```yaml
apiVersion: admissionregistration.k8s.io/v1
kind: ValidatingAdmissionWebhook
metadata:
name: openfga-security-validator
spec:
clientConfig:
service:
name: openfga-operator-webhook
namespace: openfga-system
path: "/validate"
rules:
- operations: ["CREATE", "UPDATE"]
apiGroups: ["authorization.openfga.dev"]
apiVersions: ["v1alpha1"]
resources: ["openfgas"]
```

### Git Commit Verification

Enable GPG signature verification for all commits:

```bash
# Configure Git signing
git config --global user.signingkey YOUR_GPG_KEY_ID
git config --global commit.gpgsign true

# Pre-commit hook for verification
#!/bin/bash
if ! git verify-commit HEAD; then
echo "ERROR: Commit must be signed with GPG"
exit 1
fi
```

### Security Policy Configuration

```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: openfga-security-policy
namespace: openfga-system
data:
policy.yaml: |
securityPolicy:
imageVerification:
enforced: true
allowedRegistries:
