Configure security settings for your Redis Enterprise deployment on Kubernetes. Redis Enterprise for Kubernetes provides comprehensive security features including TLS encryption, authentication, access control, and certificate management.

## Credentials and authentication

Manage cluster credentials and authentication settings:

- [Manage REC credentials](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/manage-rec-credentials) - Configure and manage Redis Enterprise cluster credentials
- [Configuration secrets](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/configuration-secrets) - Store Redis Enterprise configuration items in Kubernetes Secrets for automatic updates and secure management
- [LDAP authentication](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/ldap) - Integrate with LDAP for centralized authentication
- [SSO authentication](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/sso) - Enable SAML-based single sign-on for Cluster Manager UI access

## Certificates and encryption

Configure TLS certificates and encryption for secure communications:

- [Manage REC certificates](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/manage-rec-certificates) - Configure cluster certificates for TLS encryption
- [cert-manager integration](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/cert-manager) - Automate TLS certificate management with cert-manager
- [Add client certificates](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/add-client-certificates) - Set up client certificate authentication for databases
- [Internode encryption](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/internode-encryption) - Enable encryption between cluster nodes and configure custom certificates

## Secret management

Configure external secret management systems:

- [HashiCorp Vault integration](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/vault) - Configure HashiCorp Vault as the centralized secret management system for Redis Enterprise for Kubernetes

## Resource management

Configure security-related resource settings:

- [Allow resource adjustment](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/kubernetes/security/allow-resource-adjustment) - Enable automatic adjustment of system resources for security compliance
