Otterize is a platform for automating workload IAM (access control) for workloads on Kubernetes. Each workload declares what it needs in order to function, and a Kubernetes operator figures out the policies that need to be created. This concept is called Intent-Based Access Control (IBAC).

For each kind of supported IAM mechanism (such as Kubernetes Network Policies, AWS IAM policies), Otterize can automatically learn the required ClientIntents.

Otterize is composed of three open-source and standalone components (the intents operator, credentials operator and network mapper) you deploy on your cluster, as part of a single Helm chart, which handle enforcement, and Otterize Cloud, which supplements them with additional features.
