App Logo Policy

Explicit policy definition and evaluation across the platform.

Policy is a core Foundation App of the Batoi Cloud Platform that defines what is allowed, under what conditions, and with which approvals across platform activities. Policy works in conjunction with Identity, Projects, and Audit to ensure decisions are explicit, enforceable, and traceable.

Why Policy Matters

Without Policy:

  • Rules become informal
  • Exceptions go untracked
  • Governance depends on trust

With Policy:

  • Decisions are explicit
  • Enforcement is consistent
  • Accountability is preserved

Policy ensures that platform behavior is intentional, enforceable, and auditable, rather than implicit or discretionary.
