2.3 Policy
The policy subcommand allows you to configure a central server to serve as a policy publisher.
The policies served are related to:
- Default “.qaskx” values
- Default “qaskx-config.yaml” values
- Lint rules
- Software update
One organisation can have multiple policies and these can be also be set by department or team.
Policy is centrally driven by the qaskx-cli server policy command. The server
can be run as a docker instance. The default policy server is
https://qaskx.one/.
To change the policy server from the default requires special encrypted value to
protect from unauthorised redirection. This is to safeguard
against various cyber threat vectors.
The policy functionality can be switched off by special request. This is to ensure
that unauthorised circumvention of policies is not possible.
