/02 About

Automation and orchestration engineering reference for policy authoring, review and approval, including policy, logical interfaces, recovery and assurance.

Purpose: Policy authoring, review and approval. Domain: Automation and orchestration. Family: governance. Scenario trigger: Submit proposed security policy change. Input assurance: Change intent, impacted capabilities and owner attestations. Evaluation: Assess technical soundness, separation of duties and conflicts. Governing policy: Policy author review approval and exception workflow. Resource-side obligation: Approve bounded policy change with accountable reviewer. Protected concern: Security architecture governance and authoring service. Logical interface: Policy change content owner impact reviewer signature and decision. Evidence: Policy diff approver rationale and decision audit. Failure: Self-approved high-impact change or incomplete impact review. Required recovery: Reject proposed release and require independent approval. Architectural invariant: Policy publication requires clear authority and measurable coverage 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.
