Andrei Kvapil, CEO and Founder of Aenix, explains how GitOps tools handle access control and restrict deployments. He highlights that GitOps provides:

- Real-time inspection of changes before deployment
- Visibility of exact differences between desired and existing cluster states
- Control at both deployment and review phases

Andrei outlines a strategy using a pull request model to manage access:

1. Configure the GitOps operator to watch the main branch
2. Restrict direct pushes to the main branch
3. Implement a pull/merge request workflow
4. Review all changes before they reach the main branch

This approach allows companies to predict and control what will be deployed, leveraging GitOps principles while maintaining strict access control.
