+title: Upgrade a Hardened Custom/Imported Cluster to Kubernetes v1.25
+---
+
+Kubernetes v1.25 changes how clusters describe and implement security policies. From this version forward, [Pod Security Policies (PSPs)](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/security/pod-security-policy/) are no longer available. Kubernetes v1.25 replaces them with new security objects: [Pod Security Standards (PSS)](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/security/pod-security-standards/), and [Pod Security Admissions (PSAs)](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/security/pod-security-admission/). 
+
+If you have custom or imported hardened clusters, you must make special preparations to ensure that the upgrade from an earlier version of Kubernetes to v1.25 or later goes smoothly.
+
+## Upgrading Imported Hardened Clusters to Kubernetes v1.25 or Later
+
+<Tabs groupId="k8s-distro">
+<TabItem value="RKE2" default>
+
+Perform the following on each node in the cluster: 
+1. Save [`rancher-psact.yaml`](./rancher-psact.yaml) in `/etc/rancher/rke2`.
+1. Edit the RKE2 configuration file:
+   1. Update the `profile` field to `cis-1.23`.
+   1. Specify the path for the configuration file that you just added: `pod-security-admission-config-file: /etc/rancher/rke2/rancher-psact.yaml`.
+  
+</TabItem>
+<TabItem value="K3s">
+
+Perform the following on each node in the cluster:
+
+Follow the official K3s instructions on [Upgrading Hardened Clusters from v1.24.x to v1.25.x](https://docs.k3s.io/known-issues#hardened-125), but use a [custom](./rancher-psact.yaml) Rancher PSA configuration template, instead of the configuration provided on the official K3s site.
+</TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+After you perform these steps, you can upgrade the cluster's Kubernetes version through the Rancher UI:
+
+1. In the upper left corner, click **☰ > Cluster Management**.
+1. Find the cluster you want to update in the **Clusters** table, and click the **⋮**.
+1. Select **Edit Config**.
+1. In the **Kubernetes Version** dropdown menu, select the version that you would like to use.
+1. Click **Save**.

+1. In the upper left corner, click **☰ > Cluster Management**.
+1. Find the cluster you want to update in the **Clusters** table, and click the **⋮**.
+1. Select **Edit Config**.
+1. Under **Basics > Security**, in the **CIS Profile** dropdown menu, select `cis-1.23`. 
+1. In the **Default Pod Security Admission** dropdown menu, select `rancher-restricted`.
+1. In the **Kubernetes Version** dropdown menu, select the version that you would like to use.
+1. Click **Save**.
+
+</TabItem
+<TabItem value="K3s">
+
+1. In the upper left corner, click **☰ > Cluster Management**.
+1. Find the cluster you want to update in the **Clusters** table, and click the **⋮**.
+1. Select **Edit YAML**.
+1. Delete `PodSecurityPolicy` from `kube-apiserver-arg.enable-admission-plugins`
+1. Add this line to the `spec` field: `defaultPodSecurityAdmissionConfigurationTemplateName: rancher-restricted`
+1. Update `kubernetesVersion` to your chosen version (v1.25 or later).
+1. Click **Save**.
+
+</TabItem>
