Answer: A Kubernetes controller for managing TLS certificates

Explanation

cert-manager is a Kubernetes native certificate management controller that helps with issuing certificates from various sources like Let's Encrypt, HashiCorp Vault, Venafi, or a simple signing key pair. It ensures certificates are valid and up-to-date, and attempts to renew certificates at a configured time before expiry.
