Harness's Policy as Code framework offers a methodical approach to embedding governance, security, and compliance rules within CI/CD pipelines, ensuring adherence to organizational and regulatory standards without compromising speed and flexibility. By utilizing predefined policies and organizing them into Policy Sets, organizations can efficiently manage and enforce governance across multiple environments and pipeline stages. The framework supports gradual policy adoption, allowing teams to initially enforce rules at a WARN level to minimize disruption before transitioning to stricter ERROR enforcement, which blocks pipelines if violations occur. It emphasizes the importance of focusing policies on critical pipeline elements like secrets and connectors and advocates for continuous monitoring and updating of policies to adapt to organizational growth and evolving regulatory landscapes. Additionally, the framework encourages the development of custom policies to address unique governance needs and recommends maintaining comprehensive documentation and regular training sessions to ensure team-wide understanding and compliance.
