Azure Policy

Azure Policy is a governance service that enables organizations to enforce rules and ensure compliance across their Azure resources. It provides a framework for defining and applying policies that control the creation and management of resources within an Azure subscription. By using Azure Policy, administrators can ensure that resources adhere to organizational standards and regulatory requirements. Policies can be used to enforce rules such as requiring specific tag names, restricting resource types, enforcing resource location constraints, or setting quotas on resource usage. Azure Policy integrates with Azure Resource Manager and applies policies at various scopes, including subscriptions, resource groups, or individual resources. It also provides real-time compliance monitoring and reporting, enabling organizations to proactively address non-compliance issues and maintain a secure and compliant cloud environment. This service helps simplify governance, reduce manual oversight, and automate compliance enforcement across large-scale deployments.
