Governance Policy Categories

Governance Policy Categories

Policies are grouped into 10 categories based on the type of risk they address. Each category contains a set of policies, and each policy contains a set of rules.

Category Description
Security Protects against code-level vulnerabilities, unauthorized data access, and common attack vectors including injection, XSS, and CSRF.
Quality Enforces coding standards and best practices to reduce technical debt and ensure long-term maintainability.
Agent Behavior Restricts coding agents to safe, approved actions and prevents risky or unauthorized behavior.
Operational Governs pipeline operations and deployment processes to maintain a traceable, controlled release workflow.
Performance Prevents governor limit violations and resource-heavy patterns that degrade scalability in bulk data scenarios.
Architecture Enforces layered architecture and modern platform patterns to keep codebases modular and extensible.
Testing Ensures every change is validated with meaningful tests that meet coverage requirements before promotion.
Compliance Enforces regulatory and organizational compliance requirements across encryption, access controls, and audit logging.
Agent Oversight Keeps humans in control of AI agents by requiring human review and approval at key decision points.
AI Models Controls which AI models coding agents can use, so development stays on your org's approved models.
