Definition

The practice of encoding governance policies as machine-readable rules that automatically enforce compliance, flag violations, and generate audit trails.

Policy-as-Code is the practice of encoding governance policies as machine-readable rules that automatically enforce compliance requirements, gate AI deployments, flag violations in real time, and generate comprehensive audit trails.

For African enterprises managing multiple AI models across business units, Policy-as-Code operationalises governance at scale. It ensures consistent policy enforcement, reduces manual compliance effort, and provides auditors with clear, automated evidence of governance controls.
