In this step you will configure a check to warn on Pods that don't meet the latest version of the _baseline_ pod security standard.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n   kubectl label --overwrite ns example \\\n      pod-security.kubernetes.io/warn=baseline \\\n      pod-security.kubernetes.io/warn-version=latest\n```\n\nYou can configure multiple pod security standard checks on any namespace, using labels. The following command will enforce the baseline Pod Security Standard, but warn and audit for restricted Pod Security Standards as per the latest version (default value)\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n   kubectl label --overwrite ns example \\\n     pod-security.kubernetes.io/enforce=baseline \\\n     pod-security.kubernetes.io/enforce-version=latest \\\n     pod-security.kubernetes.io/warn=restricted \\\n     pod-security.kubernetes.io/warn-version=latest \\\n     pod-security.kubernetes.io/audit=restricted \\\n     pod-security.kubernetes.io/audit-version=latest\n```\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Kubernetes Documentation under CC-BY-4.0.
