AI-powered policy engine for defining and enforcing custom code security rules

Checked October 2026.

## What is Policy Engine?

ZeroPath Policy Engine is a security policy enforcement platform that allows security teams to define code security rules using natural language. The platform uses AI to transform plain English policy descriptions into enforceable security checks that scan codebases for violations.

The tool supports policy creation without requiring knowledge of regex or abstract syntax trees. It provides framework-aware detection capabilities across multiple web frameworks including React, Angular, Vue, Express, Django, and Rails. The engine can detect authentication and authorization patterns, identify sensitive data exposure in logs, and flag inefficient database query patterns.

Policy enforcement occurs during the development lifecycle through CI/CD integration and pull request checks. When violations are detected, developers receive contextual feedback with explanations and suggested fixes directly in their pull requests. The platform includes exception management capabilities for handling false positives.

The product includes pre-configured policy packs for compliance frameworks such as SOC2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR. It provides automated evidence collection for policy checks and generates audit reports in PDF and DOCX formats. Executive dashboards display policy coverage and compliance status across the organization.

The platform supports over 15 programming languages and integrates into existing development workflows to provide security feedback before code is merged.
