Implementing Cilium Network Policies

This hands-on lab guides you through implementing network policies with Cilium.

You'll learn to:

• Implement default-deny policies as a security baseline
• Create allow policies using label selectors
• Test policy enforcement with connectivity tests
• Understand Cilium's identity-based policy model
