Zero Trust Engineering — Application policy enforcement points

/02 About

Applications and workloads engineering reference for application policy enforcement points, including policy, logical interfaces, recovery and assurance.

Purpose: Application policy enforcement points. Domain: Applications and workloads. Family: decision. Scenario trigger: Intercept application operation at protected boundary. Input assurance: Operation identity, resource attributes and policy assertion. Evaluation: Verify decision integrity, scope, expiry and local enforcement coverage. Governing policy: Application-side enforcement and per-request obligation policy. Resource-side obligation: Apply authorization before invoking protected business logic. Protected concern: Protected application transaction processor. Logical interface: Operation ID subject resource action effective policy and proof. Evidence: Local enforcement result policy revision and bypass detection. Failure: Missing interception, stale decision or dropped obligation. Required recovery: Fail secure and reconcile enforcement state. Architectural invariant: All sensitive actions must have an enforceable and auditable application boundary Adoption: replace reference roles with concrete owner-controlled services. Specify exact provider/consumer identities, schema fields and classifications, signal provenance and freshness, idempotency, authorization lifetime, timeout/retry limits, observation and tamper evidence. A denied or failed operation must not silently become a permitted one. Scope: original vendor-neutral, implementation-agnostic technical reference model. Illustrative logical components and behaviors are neither a deployed system nor evidence of regulatory compliance. Package identities remain stable within the package; cross-package semantic reconciliation requires separate explicit registry support.
