What is the Compliance-Ready Internal Developer Platforms course about?
Internal developer platforms promise faster delivery and better developer experience, but in public-sector programs, they must also meet strict regulatory, security, and audit standards. Most platform designs overlook compliance integration from the start, leading to rework, stalled rollouts, and misalignment between engineering and governance teams. Without a structured approach, organizations risk building platforms that are either too rigid to use or too.
