Secure Application Isolation
Ensure isolated app instances follow auditable policies and defined ownership.
Overview
When isolated application instances are created without consistent governance and lifecycle controls, environments can vary in configuration and monitoring, increasing operational risk and complicating audits and incident response. Lack of defined ownership and retirement procedures produces orphaned or non-compliant instances that are hard to detect and remediate.
Secure Application Isolation establishes auditable policies, configuration templates, monitoring requirements and decommissioning criteria for application execution environments. It defines who accepts operational responsibility, what evidence must be retained for checks, and confines scope to the application execution estate while excluding enterprise HR, finance and legal policies and unrelated development or network infrastructure.
