Connect Google Kubernetes Engine to Crush
Give Crush governed access to Google Kubernetes Engine through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.
Set up
Add Google Kubernetes Engine to Crush in four steps
Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Crush then gets it through the same governed connection.
- 1
Approve Google Kubernetes Engine in Runlayer
Add Google Kubernetes Engine from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.
- 2
Connect Crush to Runlayer
Users add the Runlayer Plugin to Crush by following Runlayer’s setup guide. Crush reaches Google Kubernetes Engine’s tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

Sign in to Google Kubernetes Engine
Each user signs in to Google Kubernetes Engine with OAuth. Runlayer keeps the tokens out of the client’s configuration.

Google Kubernetes Engine’s approved tools appear in Crush. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.
Tools
Google Kubernetes Engine tools in Crush
Google Kubernetes Engine reports its tools when your organization connects it, so the list depends on your deployment.
Control
What Runlayer can see and stop in Crush
Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Crush exposes to Runlayer.
Gateway policy (available)
Every Google Kubernetes Engine call from Crush passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.
Audit trail (available)
Each call is recorded with the user, Crush as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.
Native enforcement adapter (not available)
Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Crush yet, so control happens at the gateway.
