New Audit Policy Scans for Pulumi Stacks

New Audit Policy Scans for Pulumi Stacks

Audit Policy Scans for Pulumi Stacks is part of the next generation of Pulumi Policies. This capability uses policies to run compliance checks against the last successful deployment state of your stacks, providing continuous compliance monitoring without impacting your existing CI/CD workflows.

Until now, Pulumi’s preventative policies have served as a critical “shift-left” gate, blocking non-compliant changes during pulumi up. While essential, this created challenges for organizations wanting to roll out new governance across thousands of existing stacks. This new evaluation mode solves that problem, giving you a complete and continuous view of your IaC compliance posture without the friction.

Policy Findings Hub: Move From Alert Fatigue to Action

Policy Findings Hub: Move From Alert Fatigue to Action

For platform and security teams, enabling robust cloud scanning often creates a new problem: an unmanageable firehose of policy alerts. Identifying a violation is only the first step. Without a system to manage the lifecycle of these findings, teams are quickly overwhelmed, leading to prioritization paralysis and a perpetually growing backlog.

The Policy Findings hub in Pulumi Cloud is the solution to this alert fatigue. It’s a purpose-built, collaborative workspace that turns a noisy list of violations into organized, actionable tasks. The hub brings clarity and structure to the compliance process, guiding teams from initial discovery to a verified fix.

New Compliance Packs for CIS, NIST, and PCI DSS

New Compliance Packs for CIS, NIST, and PCI DSS

Achieving compliance with industry standards such as CIS, NIST, or PCI DSS is a foundational step for every organization. Yet for many teams, it’s often a manual, months-long process that involves interpreting controls, authoring custom policies, and validating configurations across multiple clouds. These challenges often slow progress toward a known and secure cloud state.

We’re changing that. To simplify this journey, Pulumi launched a new suite of pre-built compliance policy packs for CIS Controls v8.1, NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5, and PCI DSS v4.0.

These packs are your accelerator for the “Get Clean” journey, allowing you to enforce critical security and compliance baselines across your cloud infrastructure in minutes, not months.

Policy Comes to Team and Enterprise, with New Out-of-the-box Policies and Management Experience

Pulumi’s Infrastructure as Code has included a powerful policy engine from day one.

Today, we’re excited to announce that policy guardrails are now available to all Team and Enterprise customers. Alongside this, we’re launching a redesigned policy management experience and introducing out-of-the-box policy packs that make it easier than ever to secure, govern, and optimize your cloud environments—even when powered by AI agents like Pulumi Neo.

Transferring Stacks in the Pulumi Service Just Got Easier

Transferring Stacks in the Pulumi Service Just Got Easier

Exactly 3 years ago we added support in the Pulumi Service to transfer stacks from an Individual account to a Pulumi organization and between Pulumi organizations. We heard from customers that they love this feature but found it both hard to discover and tedious when moving a large workload from one organization to another and from Individual accounts to organizations. We are excited to announce bulk stack transfer to address this feedback and a new organization set up wizard to improve discovery of the feature.

The Pulumi Service is the easiest way to use Pulumi’s open source, universal infrastructure as code SDK at scale and provides a fully managed experience. It handles infrastructure state and secrets, sets up SAML SSO, integrates with CI/CD pipelines, and enforces compliance rules.

It’s been nearly four years since the Pulumi Service launched back in 2018. In these last four years, our customer base has grown significantly and as a result, the Service’s features and capabilities have grown with it.

Announcing Team Access Tokens for the Pulumi Service

Announcing Team Access Tokens for the Pulumi Service

A few months ago we launched Organization Access Tokens for the Pulumi Service and saw overwhelmingly fast adoption from our customer base. Based on this customer demand, and existing customer feedback, we prioritized improvements in the scoping of access tokens. Today, we are launching Team Access Tokens, which allow Organization and Team Admins to create access tokens scoped to a Pulumi Team. Pulumi Service customers on the Enterprise and Business Critical editions can use Pulumi Teams to set role-based access controls (RBAC) for stacks by enabling Organization administrators to assign a set of stack permissions to a group of users.
