Continuous Compliance

Enforce compliance across hybrid infrastructure with policy as code and model-driven automation

Continuous compliance shouldn’t be at odds with continuous delivery

Increased regulation has made compliance a priority, often at the expense of speed and agility. Enterprise organizations with ambitious digital transformation initiatives can’t afford to make that tradeoff.

Make compliance scalable and predictable by enforcing policy as code as part of DevOps workflows.

“

On average, organizations must comply with 13 different IT security and/or privacy regulations and spend $3.5M annually on compliance activities, with compliance audits consuming 58 working days each quarter.

Assess and remediate at scale

Get a holistic view of compliance status.

With scanning and reporting designed for IT Operations, teams can assess infrastructure-wide compliance and quickly identify machines that don’t meet benchmark requirements.

Define once. Apply everywhere.

Define security and compliance policies as code and automatically apply the appropriate settings to hundreds or thousands of nodes at once.

Bridge skill and resource gaps.

Remediate compliance failures and build a framework for ongoing compliance, with content created by a Puppet expert and tailored to your environment.

“

Puppet has removed a tremendous number of man hours — I would say literally thousands of man hours a year... So for us, that is a tremendous win coming out of the compliance side."

Driving Value by Automating Complianceread the white paper

Enforce ongoing compliance with model-driven automation

Puppet Enterprise continuously checks your infrastructure against the baseline configurations you’ve defined and makes a corrective change if a system drifts from its compliant state.
Assign enforcement policies to node groups dynamically so that new systems automatically inherit compliant configurations based on their system facts.
Mitigate the risk of noncompliance between scans by enabling IT Ops teams to immediately validate that remediations were successful.

“

Auditors often ask how we can ensure a server meets its goals, and we say, ‘We run Puppet Enterprise at build time, and on a consistent basis.’ They are excited that we’re using a tool that enforces consistency.
