About policyascode.dev
A hands-on lab book for cloud builders who'd rather automate governance than argue about it.
🛠️ What You'll Find Here
Terraform Modules & Pipelines
Because guard-rails should deploy like app code. Real infrastructure modules you can terraform apply today.
Multi-Cloud Security Deep-Dives
AWS, Azure & GCP security labs. No copy-paste docs—actual misconfiguration scenarios you can break and fix.
OPA/Rego Policy Automation
Open Policy Agent tricks that give auditors machine-readable proof of compliance. Shift-left governance done right.
🧪 Hands-On Learning Approach
Break It, Fix It Labs
Deploy intentionally misconfigured infrastructure, then use policies to detect and fix the issues.
Try Your First Lab →Real-World Scenarios
Policy challenges based on actual incidents from Fortune 500 cloud deployments.
AWS Security Lab →Compliance Simulations
Practice audit scenarios with GDPR, SOX, and PCI-DSS compliance requirements.
Compliance Labs →🚀 Our Mission
Shift-Left Compliance
Move security and compliance checks into the development pipeline without slowing down releases.
Transparent Governance
Replace "black-box" policies with transparent, test-driven code that developers can understand and contribute to.
Practical Implementation

🤔 The Problem We're Solving
The Wall Every Cloud Team Hits
"Security says we're non-compliant; Devs say the policy is nonsense; Ops gets stuck in the middle."
Sound familiar? You're not alone. Traditional governance creates friction, slows delivery, and frustrates everyone involved.
Our Approach: Governance That Accelerates
We believe governance should accelerate delivery. Every guide ships with:
- IaC stacks you can deploy in a sandbox environment
- Failing + passing test cases showing exact compliance differences
- Architecture diagrams ready for your next stakeholder presentation
- Real-world examples from production environments
