Enterprise DevOps Governance for Azure DevOps

Reduce governance risk while giving leadership clear compliance visibility across every DevOps organization.

Mizan helps platform and security teams enforce guardrails consistently, shorten audit cycles, and provide executive stakeholders with a reliable operating view of delivery risk.

30-50%

reduction in audit preparation effort through continuous evidence capture

to establish a standardized governance baseline across multiple DevOps orgs

24/7

visibility into guardrail posture for CIO, CTO, and platform leadership

Business Problem

Enterprise delivery programs outgrow point-in-time governance checks

As scale increases, governance must move from manual oversight to continuous, operational control.

DevOps sprawl across multiple organizations

Independent Azure DevOps orgs evolve different standards, making central risk oversight difficult.

Manual audit preparation

Security and platform teams still collect evidence manually before each review cycle.

Inconsistent guardrail enforcement

Required branch, pipeline, and environment controls are not applied uniformly across teams.

Limited multi-org compliance visibility

Senior stakeholders cannot get a single, current view of policy adherence across the delivery estate.

Mizan Outcomes

Operational outcomes that align platform execution with enterprise risk objectives

Mizan is designed to produce measurable governance improvements that matter at both operator and executive levels.

Continuous compliance posture

Replace periodic spot checks with always-current control posture visibility.

Guardrail coverage reporting

Track enforcement coverage by organization, project, and control category.

Reduced audit preparation cycles

Lower pre-audit preparation time by collecting evidence continuously, not quarterly.

Standardized onboarding

Bring new teams and business units onto a common governance baseline faster.

Executive-ready reporting

Provide CIO, CTO, and risk stakeholders with concise posture and trend reporting.

How It Works

A practical 3-step governance model for enterprise platform teams

The model is designed to establish control quickly and sustain it as delivery scale changes.

01

Connect to Azure DevOps

Integrate organizations, projects, repositories, and pipelines with scoped enterprise access.

02

Evaluate against guardrails

Assess delivery configurations against required controls and identify ownership for remediation.

03

Govern with continuous visibility

Operate with live posture reporting, exception traceability, and evidence continuity for audits.

Core Capabilities

Built for enterprise governance operations, not one-time assessments

Mizan combines policy enforcement, posture observability, and reporting into one operating layer.

Governance Engine

Define and enforce policy guardrails with centralized standards and delegated ownership controls.

Observability Dashboard

Monitor control posture, drift, and remediation progress across multiple Azure DevOps organizations.

Onboarding Acceleration

Apply repeatable governance baselines to new teams without reworking control design each time.

Policy Mapping Framework

Map technical controls to enterprise compliance requirements and internal governance objectives.

Security & Compliance

Control architecture aligned to enterprise security and audit requirements

Mizan supports governance objectives without compromising data boundaries or operational control.

Azure-native deployment

Operate within Azure services and security controls already used by enterprise platform teams.

No source code exfiltration

Governance analysis is performed without moving customer source code outside approved boundaries.

Role-based access control

Align access with platform, security, and audit responsibilities using scoped permissions.

Data isolation per tenant

Maintain strict tenant boundaries for posture data, reporting context, and governance records.

Deployment Model

Designed for enterprise rollout via Microsoft Teams

Mizan is delivered through Teams/AppSource and Marketplace SaaS, then authorized within your Microsoft 365 tenant boundaries to meet enterprise governance, least-privilege, and auditability requirements.

Microsoft Teams distribution

Mizan is installed from Teams Store/AppSource and can be rolled out through enterprise admin controls for specific users, groups, and policy scopes.

Marketplace SaaS offer

Delivered through a Commercial Marketplace SaaS offer (Partner Center) with plan-based access that supports enterprise subscription and procurement models.

Customer tenant authorization & boundaries

Customer admins authorize Mizan in their Microsoft 365 tenant with tenant-scoped, least-privilege, revocable consent. Governance operates on configured metadata and control signals without source code exfiltration.

Operational control & optional deployment modes

Supports customer-specific configuration by tenant and environment, with optional dedicated instance or private deployment paths available for regulated operating requirements.
