Policy engine for cloud platform

This invention describes a system that acts as a gatekeeper between a user, like a web developer, and a cloud computing platform. When the user tries to deploy or manage a web application in the cloud, this system intercepts those commands. It then checks these commands against an organization's specific rules to ensure everything complies with their policies before allowing the commands to reach the cloud platform.

Why it matters: Since 2018, cloud environments have become vastly more complex with widespread adoption of Infrastructure as Code and GitOps, making automated policy enforcement on deployment commands crucial for security and compliance. The tooling and APIs for intercepting and analyzing cloud control plane operations have also matured significantly.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedSoftware logic, network interception, cloud integration
