Individual skill
securing-helm-chart-deployments
Secures Helm chart deployments by verifying chart signatures and provenance, rendering and linting templates for misconfiguration, enforcing pod security contexts through values.yaml, moving secrets into an external store instead of Helm values, and scoping RBAC for Helm operations in CI/CD. Use when deploying charts to Kubernetes or reviewing chart provenance, templates, or release RBAC. Keywords: Helm, provenance file, helm verify, helm lint, values.yaml, Tiller-less, release RBAC, external secrets. Do not use for scanning the rendered manifests themselves - use scanning-kubernetes-manifests-with-kubesec.

# Securing Helm Chart Deployments
## Overview
Helm is the Kubernetes package manager. Securing Helm deployments requires validating chart provenance, scanning templates for security misconfigurations, enforcing pod security contexts, managing secrets securely, and controlling RBAC for Helm operations.
## When to Use
- When deploying or configuring securing helm chart deployments capabilities in your environment
- When establishing security controls aligned to compliance requirements
- When building or improving security architecture for this domain
- When conducting security assessments that require this implementation
