Explanation

Prisma Cloud Defender registers itself as a Kubernetes admission controller using a ValidatingWebhookConfiguration object. This Kubernetes resource tells the API server to send admission review requests to the Defender webhook endpoint, which then validates workloads (pods, deployments, etc.) against Prisma Cloud policies before they are admitted to the cluster. MutatingWebhookConfiguration (D) is used for mutating webhooks that modify resources, not validate them. PodSecurityPolicies (A) is a deprecated Kubernetes-native mechanism. DestinationRules (B) are Istio service mesh objects.
