Open Policy Agent
An open-source, general-purpose policy engine that uses the declarative policy language Rego. It is commonly used for application-layer authorization, access management, and unified compliance policy enforcement, and serves as an important policy infrastructure component in the cloud-native ecosystem.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Because OPA policies are enforced at the execution layer rather than the agent layer, even if an agent is injected with instructions attempting to exceed its authority, it cannot bypass OPA's ruling.
Policy as Code is an engineering practice that expresses and enforces security and compliance rules in the form of structured code, and it already has mature applications in the cloud infrastructure domain.
Verifiable capabilities typically rely on two types of approaches: running compliance scanning tools at the node level (such as Open Policy Agent) combined with baseline comparison, and leveraging the concept of immutable infrastructure.
Open Policy Agent (OPA) is a representative open-source project in the policy-as-code space, widely used for Kubernetes admission control and cloud resource compliance checks.
A rules table can be implemented as a database configuration table, a YAML file, or a rules engine (such as Drools or Open Policy Agent).
OPA (Open Policy Agent) is a general-purpose policy engine commonly used to centrally manage permissions, access control, and compliance policies at the application layer.
Mature industry policy engine solutions include Open Policy Agent (OPA), AWS IAM Policy Engine, and Casbin.
OIDC trust policy governance can use HashiCorp Sentinel or Open Policy Agent to define policy rules, Terraform or Pulumi for declarative configuration management, and Bridgecrew/Checkov for automated scanning in CI pipelines.
OPA uses the Rego language to write policy rules and can automatically intercept non-compliant infrastructure changes in CI/CD pipelines.
Representative Policy-as-Code tools include HashiCorp's Sentinel, Open Policy Agent, and Checkov.
