Storage also worked on a number of [Container Storage Interface (CSI) features](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/178) this quarter in anticipation of moving support for CSI from beta to GA in the next Kubernetes release. This includes graduating the dependent “mount namespace propagation” feature to GA, moving the Kubelet plugin registration mechanism to beta, adding alpha support for a new CSI driver registry as well as for topology, and adding a number of alpha features to support the...

cluster security policies.

For the 1.8 release, SIG Auth focused on stablizing existing features that were introduced
in previous releases. RBAC was moved from beta to v1, and advanced auditing was moved from alpha
to beta. Encryption of resources stored on disk (resources at rest) remained in alpha, and the SIG began exploring integrations with external key management systems.
