When we first launched Project Calico in 2016, we set out to make Kubernetes networking easy, reliable, and scalable for all organizations. Our goal was to abstract away the complexity and performance overheads of other CNI plugins while simultaneously extending Kubernetes network policy to make it easier to secure your Kubernetes workloads.

In the rapidly evolving world of Kubernetes, network security remains one of the most challenging aspects for organizations. The shift to dynamic containerized environments brings challenges like inter-cluster communication, rapid scaling, and multi-cloud deployments. These challenges, compounded by tool sprawl and fragmented visibility, leave teams grappling with operational inefficiencies, misaligned priorities, and increasing vulnerabilities.
