WebLayers Governors

WebLayers Governors™ ensure the enforcement of the right policies, at the right time, in the right context.

Continuous Enforcement

WebLayers automates the deployment and enforcement of policies.

  • Define Once, Enforce Anywhere - Policies are dynamically associated with all the applicable systems across the enterprise.
  • Apply When Necessary - Policies that are relevant in one context may be irrelevant in another. You decide when to apply a single policy or an entire policy library.
  • Event-based Enforcement- allows governance without changing your development methodology
  • Selective Enforcement - to apply the most appropriate level of governance.  Active enforcement blocks a user whereas passive enforcement can just log and notify non-conformance.
