Abstract
Devices, systems, methods, and processes for determining enforcement readiness in a workload protection solution are described herein. Often, a user may desire to initiate enforcement on a network, but may not know if the various workloads, agents, or other components of the workload protection solution are in a condition to begin enforcement. As a result, embodiments described herein can generate an enforcement validation status or overall enforcement readiness determination by evaluating a plurality of different configurations, attributes, or other settings associated with any desired workloads subject to the policy to be enforced. Upon evaluation, a notification can be generated to the user in the form of a graphical user interface or other similar output device that is configured to show any determined error or issue preventing enforcement readiness. As a result, these can be addressed by a user until enforcement can be activated, easing the overall enforcement process.
