To select a suitable policy automation solution for your business, you need to think about a variety of factors.

The policy automation solution should easily expand as new network and cloud security controls are added.

While the web of regulations, contractual obligations and industry standards continues to grow, policy automation should help abstract the noise, allowing teams to consolidate policies and controls that help ensure ongoing compliance.

When selecting a policy automation solution, organizations should look for features that enable automation of the policy lifecycle and workflow to operationalize compliance and risk management-including drafting, editing, approving, distributing, gaining employee attestation, linking controls to policies, testing and remediating those controls and maintaining an auditable database of records.

Policy automation should include a unified repository store of compliance mandates and policies and empower the team with operational and security controls that are mapped to regulations, standards and even contracts.

By choosing an app-centric policy automation platform that lives at the intersection of network infrastructure, security policy and applications, an organization can align their DevSecOps with application delivery, meaning projects get completed quicker and changes work as intended.
