Zero Trust Engineering — Policy-as-code and version management

/02 About

Automation and orchestration engineering reference for policy-as-code and version management, including policy, logical interfaces, recovery and assurance.

Purpose: Policy-as-code and version management. Domain: Automation and orchestration. Family: lifecycle. Scenario trigger: Commit machine-checkable security policy update. Input assurance: Versioned policy source, test fixtures and signed change record. Evaluation: Evaluate syntax, semantic conformance and policy test results. Governing policy: Policy repository signing and promotion policy. Resource-side obligation: Promote validated policy bundle with immutable revision. Protected concern: Distributed policy execution environments. Logical interface: Policy source revision compiled artifact signature tests and rollback. Evidence: Policy bundle hash validation and activation evidence. Failure: Unsigned policy change or non-deterministic interpretation. Required recovery: Reject bundle and restore last verified policy version. Architectural invariant: Published policy must be reproducible from approved source and tests 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.
