RKE templates are designed to allow DevOps and security teams to standardize and simplify the creation of Kubernetes clusters.
RKE is the [Rancher Kubernetes Engine,](https://rancher.com/docs/rke/latest/en/) which is the tool that Rancher uses to provision Kubernetes clusters.

This section describes how to manage RKE templates and revisions. You an create, share, update, and delete templates from the **Cluster Management** view under **RKE1 Configuration > RKE Templates**.
Template updates are handled through a revision system. When template owners want to change or update a template, they create a new revision of the template. Individual revisions cannot be edited. However, if you want to prevent a revision from being used to create a new cluster, you can disable it.

[Pod Security admission (PSA)](./pod-security-standards.md) configuration templates are a Rancher custom-defined resource (CRD), available in Rancher v2.7.2 and above. The templates provide pre-defined security configurations that you can apply to a cluster:
:::info important
The policies shipped by default in Rancher aim to provide a trade-off between security and convenience. If a more strict policy configuration is needed, users are able to craft such policies themselves based on their specific requirements. In the case Rancher policies are preferred, you will need to deploy admission controllers that block the creation of any [exempted namespaces](#exempting-required-rancher-namespaces) that won't be used within your environments.
:::
- `rancher-privileged`: The most permissive configuration. It doesn't restrict the behavior of any pods. This allows for known privilege escalations. This policy has no exemptions.
- `rancher-restricted`: A heavily restricted configuration that follows current best practices for hardening pods. You must make [namespace-level exemptions](./pod-security-standards.md#rancher-on-psa-restricted-clusters) for Rancher components.

RKE2, also known as RKE Government, is a Kubernetes distribution that focuses on security and compliance for U.S. Federal Government entities. It is considered the next iteration of the Rancher Kubernetes Engine, now known as RKE1.
RKE1 and RKE2 have several slight behavioral differences to note, and this page will highlight some of these at a high level.
