netpol-synthesizer

This application takes a JSON file, describing the connectivity in a given Kubernetes cluster, and produces a set of Kubernetes NetworkPolicies that allow only the specified connectivity and nothing more.

Requirements:

• Python 3.8 or above

Installation:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/np-guard/netpol-synthesizer.git
cd netpol-synthesizer
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate.csh  # the exact script may depend on the shell you are using
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage:

python src/netpol_synth.py [-o <output_file>] [-b baseline_rules_file] <connectivity_file>

• connectivity_file is the path to a JSON file describing connectivity. This should be the output of running the Network Topology Analyzer.
• output_file (optional) is a path to output file where the resulting NetworkPolicy resources will be dumped (in YAML format). If omitted, output will be sent to stdout.
• baseline_rules_file is a yaml file containing a list of baseline rules. See these examples

For example:

 python src/netpol_synth.py -o test.yaml -b baseline-rules/examples/allow_load_generation.yaml tests/connectivity_jsons/microservices-demo.json
