Summary and Key concepts

Summary:​

This article introduces the security features of Portworx, focusing on Role-based Access Control (RBAC) and volume encryption. Portworx RBAC manages access control across the cluster, defining authentication, authorization, and ownership. It also supports cluster-wide encryption and more granular namespace or storage-class level encryption for Persistent Volume Claims (PVCs). The article includes references to more detailed guides on creating encrypted PVCs for platforms where Portworx is deployed.
