About this guide:
Effective policy management is at the heart of strong software supply chain governance. It ensures that security, compliance, and operational standards aren’t just documented, but actively enforced across every package, repository, and workflow. Without it, organizations risk inconsistencies, vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps slipping through the cracks. But knowing where to start can be daunting, especially with the complexity of modern DevOps environments.
That’s why this cookbook exists: to give you a proven starting point, with ready-made Rego policy examples you can adapt to your unique needs, so you can accelerate governance without getting stuck in “blank page” mode.

Types of policies covered:
- Security Policies: Enforce rules related to package vulnerabilities, signing, and approved sources.
- Compliance Policies: Ensure adherence to internal or external regulatory standards.
- Best Practice Policies: Promote consistent and efficient usage of Cloudsmith.
