Continuously Enforce Policy as Code and Desired State Across Your Infrastructure
Modern IT environments are constantly evolving. As organizations scale across hybrid cloud, on-premises, and edge infrastructure, manual governance becomes increasingly difficult to maintain. Configuration drift, inconsistent security controls, and fragmented automation increase operational risk while making compliance harder to achieve.
Perforce Puppet Enterprise Advanced delivers Intelligent Platform Governance through policy-driven automation, helping organizations continuously enforce desired state, automate compliance, and maintain consistent infrastructure at enterprise scale.
With Puppet Enterprise Advanced, you can:
- Continuously enforce policy-as-code to maintain your desired state across hybrid infrastructure.
- Automate compliance as code to help reduce manual effort and support ongoing audit readiness.
- Detect and remediate configuration drift before it becomes an operational or security risk.
- Centralize governance as code with reusable policies and automated enforcement across Windows, Linux, cloud, and virtual infrastructure.
- Strengthen security policy as code by consistently applying and maintaining approved security standards.
- Replace disconnected policy as code tools with a unified platform that delivers governance, visibility, and policy-driven automation at enterprise scale.
Move Beyond Infrastructure as Code with Policy as Code Compliance
Maintaining secure, compliant infrastructure requires more than automated provisioning. Continuous policy enforcement helps ensure systems remain aligned with organizational standards as they evolve.
Infrastructure as Code Isn't Enough
Infrastructure-as-Code provisions systems, but provisioning alone doesn't ensure they remain secure, compliant, or configured as intended. As environments evolve, configuration drift can introduce operational risk and make audit readiness more difficult.
Puppet extends policy-as-code compliance beyond deployment by continuously evaluating infrastructure against your desired state throughout day-to-day operations. This enables teams to detect unauthorized changes, automatically restore approved configurations, and maintain operational consistency across all environments.
Continuous Infrastructure as Code Compliance
By combining desired state enforcement with automated drift remediation, Puppet strengthens infrastructure-as-code compliance throughout the infrastructure lifecycle. Rather than relying on manual reviews or periodic audits, organizations gain ongoing visibility into compliance status, reduce manual remediation, and support continuous audit readiness.
Simplify Governance as Code with Automated Compliance
Governance is most effective when policies are consistently enforced across every environment.
Puppet enables organizations to operationalize governance as code by transforming operational, security, and compliance policies into reusable, version-controlled code that is continuously enforced across infrastructure.
As configurations change, Puppet automatically detects drift, enforces approved policies, and helps maintain standardized configurations across Windows, Linux, cloud, and virtual infrastructure. Instead of managing separate compliance as code tools alongside other point solutions, organizations gain centralized governance, policy-driven automation, and enterprise-wide visibility through a single platform designed for complex, heterogeneous environments.
Build Compliance as Code into Everyday Operations
Continuous compliance helps reduce risk, improve operational consistency, and simplify audit readiness by integrating policy enforcement into everyday infrastructure management.
Continuous Compliance Without Manual Audits
Compliance is most effective when it's built into daily operations — not treated as a point-in-time exercise. Puppet enables compliance-as-code by continuously assessing infrastructure against organizational policies and security standards, providing teams with ongoing visibility into their compliance posture.
Automate Remediation Before Risks Grow
When systems deviate from approved configurations, Puppet helps automatically remediate policy violations before they become security risks or audit findings. By automating remediation and continuously enforcing approved policies, organizations can reduce audit preparation time, strengthen their security posture, and allow infrastructure teams to spend less time responding to configuration issues and more time delivering strategic initiatives.
Build a Flexible Policy as Code Framework
Every organization has unique governance requirements. Puppet provides a flexible policy-as-code framework that enables teams to define, manage, and enforce policies across virtually any infrastructure environment.
Common policy as code examples include infrastructure configuration standards, security hardening policies, access and privilege controls, cloud governance policies, operational guardrails, internal compliance requirements, and regulatory policy enforcement. These examples demonstrate how organizations can consistently enforce governance across diverse infrastructure environments using reusable, version-controlled policies.
Because policies are managed as code, they can be version-controlled, reviewed, tested, and deployed using the same workflows teams already use for infrastructure automation. This makes it easier to adapt policies as business needs evolve while maintaining consistent governance across the enterprise.
Govern Infrastructure with Confidence
Perforce Puppet Enterprise Advanced helps organizations bring together policy-as-code, governance-as-code, and compliance-as-code within a single platform for Intelligent Platform Governance.
By continuously enforcing policy, detecting and remediating configuration drift, and maintaining compliance across hybrid environments, Puppet helps organizations reduce operational risk, improve security posture, and simplify audit readiness, all while enabling teams to move faster with confidence.
See how Perforce Puppet Enterprise Advanced can help your organization simplify policy as code, strengthen policy as code compliance, and deliver Intelligent Platform Governance across your entire infrastructure.
