Policy & governance — decide what's allowed, prove what happened
What it is
Governance decides whether an action may happen, who may do it, which runtime attributes narrow that permission, who gets told, and what record is kept. trstctl's governance is six capabilities: a policy engine that allows or denies each operation, RBAC that enforces who can do what, an ABAC deny overlay that blocks requests using environment, time, actor, and resource attributes, notifications that alert the right people, a tamper-evident audit log that records everything, and compliance reporting that turns that record into signed evidence for auditors.
The mental model: the rulebook, the ID checkpoint, the pager, the flight recorder, and the auditor's evidence pack — controls that turn a powerful tool into one a regulated enterprise can run.
Why it exists
A credential platform is, by definition, powerful — it can mint and revoke the identities holding your infrastructure together. That power needs guardrails: a way to encode "never issue a 10-year cert," ensure only authorized people issue, know immediately when something important happens, and keep an unforgeable record for the inevitable audit. Without these, the platform is a liability; with them, it's what proves your machine-identity hygiene to a customer's security team.
How it works
The policy engine (F28)
Every issue, deploy, and revoke passes through an embedded OPA
/ Rego policy gate before it executes. The Rego module compiles once at startup — a
module that fails to compile is a hard startup error, so the system never runs without
an enforceable policy. Each decision sees structured input (action, profile, actor,
tenant_id, attributes) and is fail-closed: an evaluation error, ambiguous result, or
overloaded pool all return deny. Evaluation runs in its own bounded lane, so overload
is rejected fast instead of starving issuance, and every decision is recorded as an
immutable policy.decision event. The default policy denies everything except
revocation and permits issuance/deployment only when a profile is bound.
Status: served on the issuance path when ca.policy.enabled: the gate runs on every
issue/deploy/revoke transition, the RA scope split (certs:request ≠ certs:issue)
stops a requester from self-issuing, and ca.policy.require_approval requires a distinct
approver — self-approval is rejected.
RBAC (F8)
Role-based access control decides who may do what. Permissions are
<resource>:<verb> strings (certs:issue, audit:read); five built-in roles ship —
admin, operator, viewer, auditor, and ra-officer (which can request but not
self-issue, the registration-authority separation). Grants are scoped to a
tenant, and a scope check hard-blocks cross-tenant access at the database layer, so one
tenant can never read another's. The API's guard middleware checks the required
permission on every route, returns 403 application/problem+json on failure, and stamps
the acting principal into the immutable event record for audit attribution.
Status: enforced on every served route.
Ownership attribution
Every non-human identity needs an accountable owner, not a discovery note that
says "owner: unknown." GET /api/v1/ownership/attribution (nhi:read) resolves managed
and discovered NHIs to a registered owner, team, or vendor, and marks anything
unresolved as orphaned rather than counted as accountability. See
Discovery & inventory for the resolution mechanics, owner
kinds, and evidence-ref shape; the same data is available via
trstctl-cli owners attribution and the Owners console.
Ownership attribution is also deployment authority. Owner create/update carries
application_id, service, business_unit, environment, and an ordered
escalation chain in owner.* v2 events. POST /api/v1/owners/{id}/attest records
the authenticated principal and a digest of the exact application/environment
model. A deployment event carries either that still-current proof or one active,
reasoned, attributed exception from
/api/v1/identities/{id}/ownership-exceptions; it is rejected with 409 when
neither exists. The configurable cadence scheduler requests re-attestation once
per stale verification edge and writes the owner/escalation notification intent
through the outbox in the same tenant transaction.
Status: served for managed identities plus discovery-fed NHIs.
NHI policy compliance
GET /api/v1/nhi/policy/compliance (nhi:read) evaluates governed non-human
identities — managed and discovery-fed — against policy facts in the unified NHI
inventory: rotation cadence, allowed scopes/geographies, expiry/maximum TTL, and
business purpose.
The response is a posture view, not the raw source record: counts for compliant and
violating NHIs, per-control violation totals, severity, risk score, disallowed
scopes/geographies, recommendation text, and evidence refs such as inventory:<id> and
discovery.finding:<id>. Raw credential values are never returned. A row isn't counted
as compliant because it exists — it becomes governed only once it carries a rotation/TTL
policy, a scope or geography envelope, an expiry, or business-purpose metadata.
The same read path is available as trstctl-cli nhi policy compliance; the Risk console
shows the highest-severity violations beside over-privilege, stale, and
static-credential posture.
Status: served for metadata-backed policy compliance over managed and discovered NHIs; authoring and activating the live Rego module is the deployment-time workflow under the policy engine above.
Automated NHI decommissioning
POST /api/v1/nhi/decommission (identities:write) accepts governance signals
from owner departure, vendor termination, or inactivity review and resolves them
against tenant-local managed NHI identities. The matcher understands direct
identity_id, owner_id, owner name/email, vendor name, and metadata-only
activity fields such as last_seen_at and last_used_at. Matched identities are
decommissioned through the normal lifecycle state machine: active issued,
deployed, or renewing identities are revoked with the RFC 5280
cessationOfOperation reason by default, and already-revoked identities are
retired. The response is an evidence pack with the signal type, action, previous
state, final state, and evidence refs for each item.
The same workflow is exposed as trstctl-cli nhi decommission -f nhi-decommission.json --force and in the Identities console. It deliberately
does not treat full tenant deletion or member/API-token offboarding as NHI
decommissioning; those remain separate admin flows.
Status: served for managed NHI identities selected by departure, vendor-term, and inactivity signals, using event-sourced revoke/retire transitions.
Access-change approvals
Access-change approvals answer "who approved this non-human identity change, and which
change record justified it?" POST /api/v1/access/requests (access:write) opens a
tenant-scoped request: action (grant, modify, revoke, rotate, deploy, or
break_glass), NHI identifier and kind, resource, entitlement, PR/ticket/CAB reference,
reason, risk, evidence refs, and required approval count. trstctl infers the change
system from GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, ServiceNow, or Jira references; unknown systems
stay external, not a supported integration.
Decisions are recorded with POST /api/v1/access/requests/{id}/decisions
(access:write): the approver must differ from the requester, a second decision by the
same approver is rejected, and the request reaches approved only at quorum (any
denial moves it to denied). Create and decide are idempotent, so a retried
Idempotency-Key returns the original result rather than duplicating an approval. The
read side is projected from access.change_request.created and
access.change_request.decided events, available at GET /api/v1/access/requests and
GET /api/v1/access/requests/{id} (access:read).
trstctl-cli access requests create -f access-request.json
trstctl-cli access requests list --status pending
trstctl-cli access requests get <request-id>
trstctl-cli access requests decide <request-id> -f access-decision.json
The Policy console shows recent requests, their PR/ticket/CAB evidence, approval count, and approve/deny actions, never displaying credential material.
Status: served for PR/ticket/CAB-backed access-change requests with distinct-approver enforcement, idempotency, event projection, API, CLI, and console coverage.
ABAC deny overlay
Attribute-based access control (ABAC) narrows a permission RBAC already granted. It's one-way: ABAC can deny, but never grants a route or certificate action the caller didn't hold through RBAC. RBAC answers "is this caller allowed in principle?"; ABAC answers "is this exact request allowed right now?"
Enable it with auth.abac.enabled and a Rego module that declares
package trstctl.abac. The module evaluates after RBAC on every guarded API route with
request attributes (input.permission, input.resource.request.method,
input.resource.request.path, optional project, actor roles, configured input.env,
and time fields such as input.now_hour_utc); on the served issue/deploy/revoke
lifecycle route it also adds identity attributes such as identity.id, identity.kind,
identity.status, owner_id, transition.to, input.resource.env, and
input.resource.tags.service.
ABAC fails closed: a non-compiling module stops startup, an evaluation error denies with
403, a saturated policy worker lane returns 503, and every decision is recorded as an
immutable policy.abac.decision event. A practical change-window overlay — deny
certs:issue in prod outside a configured window — is shown in full under
Use it.
Status: served after RBAC on every guarded route when auth.abac.enabled, plus
identity-attribute evaluation on issue/deploy/revoke.
The audit log (F9)
Buyer receipt for CAP-POL-06 Tamper-evident / signed audit log: the served audit
surface is GET /api/v1/audit/events for tenant-scoped replay and GET /api/v1/audit/export for a signed offline evidence bundle.
The console names this surface Change history and starts with a bounded event summary rather than raw event machinery. It does not call that window the newest or complete history. Search activity opens filters, rows, and event detail. The plain search is case-insensitive across event type, privacy-filtered actor subject and roles, and event data. Hash-chain status and signed or ingestible exports live under Signatures and evidence export; scheduled SIEM feeds live under Collector delivery. All three sections preserve the same served endpoints and tenant scope, and explicit query links open the search layer automatically.
The audit log is a hash-chained, tamper-evident record where each entry's hash links
to the previous one (hash_i = SHA256(hash_{i-1} || record_i); all hashing goes through
the single crypto path). Altering, dropping, or reordering any record breaks the chain,
and VerifyChain names the first broken link — offline. Every change is recorded as an
immutable event, and the audit log is a rebuilt view of that history, not a separate
write store, so it can't drift from what actually happened; it's tenant-isolated at the
database layer. You can export a JOSE-signed evidence bundle an auditor verifies without
touching the live system, and retention checkpoints keep the chain verifiable even after
old segments are archived.
Status: served — GET /api/v1/audit/events and GET /api/v1/audit/export.
Both endpoints accept tool in addition to feature_id, action, event type,
text and time filters. The tool predicate is server-owned and applied before the
result limit. For example, tool=workloads_machines includes attestation and
workload issuance, not just events containing the word “ssh.” Unknown tools fail
with HTTP 400. Every export encoding preserves the same scope and retained-prefix
chain. See the CLI filter examples.
Notifications (F29)
When something matters — a certificate nearing expiry, a CT-log anomaly — trstctl alerts the right channel using reliable, journaled delivery: the alert intent is written in the same transaction as the triggering change so a crash can't drop it, and a dispatcher fans it to every configured channel, retrying at-least-once on failure. Channels (full list under Reference) each satisfy one small interface and pass a conformance check; channel secrets (webhook URLs, routing keys, API tokens) are held in wipeable memory where the provider allows it and never logged. HTTP-based channels default to the shared SSRF-safe client and accept only public HTTPS endpoints, so an operator callback can't turn the control plane into a request to loopback, RFC1918, or cloud-metadata addresses.
The /notifications console names this journey Alerts and delivery. Its opening
summary says whether any ready channel and routing rule actually connect an event to a
person or system, and it separates failed-delivery evidence from configuration. One
Add channel action opens a bounded form; channel coverage, routing, and delivery
attempts remain in three closed detail sections until needed. The server applies one
fixed alert envelope across channel providers. There is no tenant-editable template
library in this build, and the console states that limitation instead of presenting a
false template editor. The console does not prefill invented channel or owner values,
and it keeps routing-policy save disabled until the server has reviewed the exact
unsaved draft and every entered destination is a ready channel. Review exact route
does not save the rule, write an event, queue a message, or contact a provider. It
returns the normalized scope and channel set, a stable request fingerprint, missing
channel blockers, the later execution effects, the recovery steps, and the checks an
operator can use after saving. Editing any field invalidates that review, so an old
green result cannot authorize a changed rule. Save also rechecks current server-side
channel readiness, closing the gap where a channel is disabled after review.
Status: served. When the lifecycle alert window is set, the leader scheduler writes
notification.expiry outbox work, stamps the certificate alerted, and includes the
owner/contact plus active approver recipients. Tenants manage channels at
/api/v1/notification-channels (create, read, replace, delete); rows store endpoint
metadata and credential references only, redact those in responses, and rebuild from
notification.channel.* events. The outbox dispatcher resolves enabled tenant-authored
channels at delivery time; process-configured channels remain supported for bootstrap.
Severity and threshold-day metadata route through the
severity-to-channel routing matrix instead of fanning every alert to every channel;
EffectiveAlertChannels resolves the policy-specific set at dispatch time, and a
per-(subject, threshold, channel) dedup ledger stops the same threshold from firing
twice on the same channel. Operators can list channel families, queue redacted tests at
/api/v1/notification-channels/{id}/test, work the inbox (list, get, mark read), and
requeue failed dispatches from /api/v1/notifications/{id}/requeue. Every successful
fan-out records a notification.delivery.recorded event before the outbox row is acknowledged,
so a retry after failure skips channels already rebuilt from the event log; channel
tests replay through notification.test.queued events. Operators can review an exact
routing-policy draft at POST /api/v1/notification-routing-policies/preview, manage
the saved rules at /api/v1/notification-routing-policies, and inspect the effective
saved hierarchy with GET /api/v1/notification-routing-preview. Recovery is explicit:
replace or delete a bad policy, then requeue only the failed delivery. Retrying is safe
because completed channel receipts are preserved and skipped.
Compliance reporting (F62)
Compliance reporting turns the audit log and the CBOM into signed, reproducible evidence packs covering all 15 supported frameworks (full list under Reference). A v2 pack binds its claims to one tenant and one inclusive 90-day evidence window. Every evidenced control names exact immutable event references (ID, tenant-local sequence, type, time, and audit-chain digest) or exact tenant graph objects. Every prerequisite must resolve inside that boundary; missing, stale, malformed, or wrong-tenant evidence is a visible gap. CNSA 2.0's PQC control, for example, passes only when post-quantum assets exist and quantum-vulnerable ones do not. Reports are signed through the single crypto path, but a valid signature proves authenticity of the bounded manifest, not certification or auditor sufficiency.
Each pack states residuals honestly. fips-140 marks POST evidenced only when the
running module is active and its fail-closed self-test passes; build provenance,
crypto-boundary artifacts, CMVP certificate, and deployment configuration stay gaps
without exact evidence. common-criteria can evidence attributable policy/change and
credential-lifecycle facts, while its security target and lab evaluation remain gaps.
cabf-br requires exact profile, CA issuance/revocation, custody, and ceremony events;
CP/CPS publication and independent public-trust audit remain external. soc2 requires
current inventory plus complete ownership and review for CC6, policy/lifecycle/
monitoring events for CC7, and active-policy/approved-change/lifecycle evidence for
CC8; scope, management assertion, sampling, and the independent CPA report remain
residuals.
Status: served — evidence-pack export, inventory/schedule surface, and NHI
compliance mapping below are all live REST/CLI/console routes. GET /api/v1/compliance/inventory-report enumerates served frameworks, report types, backing
routes, evidence references, schedule rows, and inventory counts across certificates,
CBOM assets, and discovery/report schedules; POST/GET /api/v1/compliance/report-schedules record and list idempotent, event-sourced
schedules, with compliance-report delivery limited to audit_export until a served
report runner exists. POST /api/v1/compliance/report-schedules/preview validates and
fingerprints the exact unsaved definition without appending an event, projecting a row,
generating a report, or calling a destination. The console invalidates that review after
any edit and keeps Create schedule disabled until the exact draft is ready. Saved
schedules expose named /{id}/pause and /{id}/resume recovery routes. Pause retains
the definition and prior evidence; resume calculates a fresh full interval. Both actions
are tenant-scoped, permission-checked, event-sourced, and idempotent. This limitation
does not apply to the separate native audit
feed: PUT /api/v1/audit/feeds/{id} and GET /api/v1/audit/feeds configure and
observe durable Splunk HEC or Microsoft Sentinel batches. GET /api/v1/compliance/nhi-report builds a separate mapping (NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5, NIST
CSF 2.0, PCI DSS 4.0, DORA, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A, FedRAMP, CMMC 2.0, eIDAS, NIS2)
from served NHI posture only — never documentation or unsupported claims — with finding
counts and residual attestations for legal scope, control applicability, and auditor
sampling.
The same surface runs NHI access certification campaigns: a reviewer starts a campaign
with non-secret NHI/resource/entitlement items, then records each item decision as
certified, revoked, or exception — event-sourced, with routes and events listed
under Reference. The request body accepts identifiers and evidence refs
only; inline secrets and credential values are rejected.
Privacy and data-subject controls (F79)
Privacy controls are first-class governance surfaces, not hidden compliance helpers.
Before either destructive workflow, POST /api/v1/privacy/subject-erasures/preview and POST /api/v1/privacy/retention-runs/preview perform effect-free, tenant-scoped reads.
Subject review returns exact current per-class counts, archive-disposition and
active-legal-hold evidence, later writes, a tenant-bound fingerprint, and explicit
recovery/verification instructions. Retention review resolves the effective tenant
policy and returns the current cutoffs and eligible counts. Neither preview appends an
event, projects a row, reserves an idempotency key, or calls an outside system.
POST /api/v1/privacy/subject-erasures records a tenant-scoped subject erasure, emits
privacy.subject.erased, and projects pseudonymized or cleared personal data while
keeping audit evidence verifiable. POST /api/v1/privacy/retention-runs records a
non-audit PII retention pass, emits privacy.retention.enforced, and applies configured
retention windows to operational metadata; later runs do not count already-pseudonymized
rows as fresh work. POST /api/v1/privacy/subject-exports
answers access/portability requests as a read-only export that does not mutate state or
carry an Idempotency-Key. GET /api/v1/privacy/catalog exposes the maintained
personal-data catalog so operators can see what fields are subject to erasure and
retention.
Erasure binds the authenticated caller, exact route, subject, and reason to its
Idempotency-Key. A tenant-scoped durable operation record retains the canonical
event identity and response after the generic response cache expires or the live
event moves to the signed audit archive. That record is independent PostgreSQL
backup state, so projection rebuild and snapshot restore do not erase retry
authority.
When erasure changes bytes in the hot event history, the control plane also emits
history.tenant_data_rewrite.continuity. This is system-signed generation evidence,
not a second operator API event: its canonical JWS binds the tenant, old/new
generation and configuration identities, invariant/mapping/content roots, audit-chain
heads, retention seed, and the disclosure that older external archives, exports, or
backups may still retain the source bytes.
The CLI exposes the same controls through privacy erasures preview, privacy erasures erase, privacy erasures list, privacy retention preview,
privacy retention run, privacy retention list, privacy export, and privacy catalog; the web console's /privacy screen covers erasure, retention enforcement,
retention evidence, and the catalog. See Privacy data catalog
for the row-level map and erasure/retention behavior.
In the console
The /policy screen is named Rules and approvals. Its opening answer says whether
the fail-closed protection gate is on, whether a custom rule is active, how many rule
versions are recorded, and how many access requests need approval. It never reports a
healthy state when either opening API cannot be verified. The only opening action,
Create rule, saves a reviewed draft; it does not activate that draft.
Exact machinery remains available in four closed sections: rule versions and change
history, safe rule testing, framework evidence and reports, and approval/access
reviews. Opening framework evidence loads any of the 15 supported frameworks (list
under Reference), its signed tenant and coverage window, exact
per-control references, and missing prerequisites. The signed manifest also counts
certificate custody by origin, storage, and exportability and lists every incomplete
certificate with its missing fields; the screen shows those exact gaps instead of
hiding them in a percentage. The reporting section also contains the compliance
inventory report, audit-export schedules, and NHI compliance mapping. The safe-test
section calls POST /api/v1/policy/dry-run to compile a candidate lifecycle or ABAC
Rego module against tenant input, returns allow/deny/error plus a bounded trace, and
appends policy.dry_run.evaluated without raw values. The change-history section
serves lifecycle rule listing, activation, and rollback through
/api/v1/policy/versions; activation remains a separate recorded action after the
candidate compiles. The approvals section contains NHI access-certification campaigns
and access-change decisions. The /audit
screen is a filterable audit explorer (type presets such as Policy decisions, time and
sequence windows) that downloads a signed evidence bundle and manages scheduled
Splunk HEC/Sentinel delivery with cursor, record lag, retry, failure, and collector
receipt state; the /privacy screen renders
the served data-subject controls and catalog. See The web console.

Routes for every command above are in Reference; all mutations need an
Idempotency-Key. Evidence packs support all 15 frameworks (path values in
Reference) and return a signed export plus public_key_der so an auditor
can verify the manifest offline. RBAC is enforced automatically. A default-deny policy
looks like this in Rego:
package trstctl.policy
default allow = false
allow { input.action == "revoke" }
allow { input.action == "issue"; input.profile != "" }
Turn on the ABAC deny overlay when a decision depends on current deployment state or resource tags:
auth:
abac:
enabled: true
environment:
change_window: "false"
module: |
package trstctl.abac
default deny := false
deny if {
input.permission == "certs:issue"
input.resource.env == "prod"
input.env.change_window != "true"
}
Pitfalls & limits
- Read the status line in each section above: every capability here is served, but
several are gated behind a config flag (
ca.policy.enabled,ca.policy.require_approval,auth.abac.enabled); Reference gives the exact flag and route. - Policy fails closed. If your Rego is wrong or the engine is overloaded, operations are denied, not allowed. Test policy changes before rollout.
- Compliance reporting, privacy controls, NHI campaigns, and access-change approvals evidence controls; they do not certify you. Campaigns prove a reviewer attested to listed access at a point in time; approvals prove who approved a scoped NHI change against a PR/ticket/CAB reference; privacy evidence proves the product executed the configured controls. External auditors decide whether your whole program meets a framework — see also Audit & compliance.
- Notifications are at-least-once, so design channel handlers to tolerate a duplicate.
