Description: Compliance verification is the process of ensuring that infrastructure and application configurations in the cloud meet regulatory standards and internal policies of an organization. This process is crucial in environments where companies increasingly rely on the cloud for their operations. Compliance verification involves the systematic review of cloud resource configurations, ensuring alignment with regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, among others. Additionally, it focuses on identifying and mitigating risks associated with data security and privacy. In the context of infrastructure as code practices, compliance verification becomes an essential component to ensure that automated configurations are not only efficient but also secure and compliant with relevant regulations. This process helps organizations avoid legal penalties and strengthens customer trust by demonstrating a commitment to data security and privacy. Compliance verification relies on regular audits, monitoring tools, and governance policies that allow companies to maintain effective control over their cloud infrastructure.
