Rönd

Rönd is a lightweight container that distributes security policy enforcement throughout your application.

Rönd is based on OpenPolicy Agent and allows you to define security policies to be executed during API invocations. Rönd runs in your Kubernetes cluster as a sidecar container of your Pods. Rönd intercepts the API traffic, applies your policies and, based on the policy result, forwards the request to your application service or rejects the API invocation.

Why Rönd?

Features

Rönd supports three policy types:

1. Allow or reject request
2. Query generation during the request flow
3. Response body patching

RBAC capabilities

Rönd natively allows you to build an RBAC solution based on Roles and Bindings saved in MongoDB.

Local development

For local development you need to have Go installed locally, checkout the go.mod file to know the currently used language version.

Run tests

make test

Please note that in order to run tests you need Docker to be installed; tests need a local instance of MongoDB to be up and running, the make test command will take care of it by creating a new mongodb container. The container is auomatically removed at the end of tests; if it remains leaked simply run make clean.
