This page explains how to enable Binary Authorization in your deployer project.

You first create or select a project. You enable Binary Authorization in the
Google Cloud project where you deploy containers. This is the same project
where you run your
[supported platforms](https://docs.cloud.google.com/binary-authorization/docs/overview#supported_platforms),
such as Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Cloud Run, or
Google Distributed Cloud.

To enable Binary Authorization, follow these steps:

Binary Authorization is enabled. You can now set it up with your container
management platform.

> [!WARNING]
> **Warning:** If you remove Binary Authorization Service Agent or change its roles, Binary Authorization fails due to missing permissions.
