Since the introduction of the new Gateway APIs, created by the SIG Network community, Linkerd maintainers have been working on leveraging a new pattern known as policy attachment in Linkerd’s authorization mechanism.

Policy attachment, as outlined by the SIG Network community, allows platform-level policies, such as timeouts, retries, and custom health checks, to attach to any arbitrary Kubernetes type. This enables users to create custom policies that extend, and plug into the API instead of being a concrete part of it.
