+## Background
+
+At [Viaduct](https://www.viaduct.ai/), we manage our Kubernetes resources via the [GitOps](https://www.weave.works/blog/gitops-operations-by-pull-request) pattern; however, we could not find a solution compatible with our stack for managing secrets via the GitOps paradigm. We built `KSOPS` to connect [kustomize](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/) to [SOPS](https://github.com/mozilla/sops) and integrated it with [Argo CD](https://github.com/argoproj/argo-cd) to safely manage our secrets the same way we manage the rest our Kubernetes manifest.

 ## Overview
 
 `KSOPS`, or kustomize-SOPS, is a [kustomize](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/) plugin for SOPS encrypted resources. `KSOPS` can be used to decrypt any Kubernetes resource, but is most commonly used to decrypt encrypted Kubernetes Secrets and ConfigMaps. As a [kustomize](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/) plugin, `KSOPS` allows you to manage, build, and apply encrypted manifests the same way you manage the rest of your Kubernetes manifests.
