Policy Modes - Enforce and Audit

This hands-on lab teaches you how to use Kyverno's validation failure action modes to control policy behavior.

You'll learn to:

• Understand the difference between Audit and Enforce modes
• Configure policies to block non-compliant resources
• Use Audit mode for monitoring without blocking
• Create policy exceptions for specific resources
• Transition policies from Audit to Enforce mode safely

Understanding policy modes is essential for implementing policies in production environments and is a key KCA certification topic.
