Use case
Multi-Cloud Policy Packs
Standardize governance rules across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI—using reusable policy sets that integrate with approvals and drift remediation.
Policy pack sprawl happens when every team reinvents governance rules in slightly different ways.
The result is inconsistent enforcement and a review process that relies on “trust me” rather than verifiable checks.
What policy packs do
Policy packs provide:
- a curated set of governance rules for common risk categories,
- consistent evaluation across clouds,
- repeatable reviewer context for approvals,
- and a path to extend rules as your org’s risk model matures.
How packs fit the OrchesTerra control plane
Policy evaluation supports:
- plan review before apply,
- drift remediation decisions,
- and approval routing based on the risk signals triggered.
If drift is the observation layer, policy packs are the governance layer that turns observation into safe action.

FAQ
Can we start with a minimal ruleset?
Yes. Most teams begin with a small set of high-risk, high-frequency rules, then expand after reviewing real violations and reviewer feedback.
Are policy packs reusable across teams?
That’s the goal. Policy packs should be shared by default, with controlled extensions for special cases.
