Custom Compliance Frameworks Now in GitLab

Custom Compliance Frameworks Now Available in GitLab

We are excited to announce the introduction of custom compliance frameworks in GitLab, empowering teams to define and enforce specific security and compliance rules that align with their unique operational and regulatory needs.

Built to support organisations with complex governance and audit requirements, these new capabilities are particularly relevant for industries like finance, healthcare, or government where regulatory mandates vary significantly. With this feature, GitLab administrators can create tailored compliance frameworks, apply them at the group or project level, and gain better visibility into adherence to internal policies.

Key features include the ability to:

• Create custom labels and frameworks for compliance tracking
• Define validation rules aligned with organisation-specific standards
• Apply frameworks automatically via project templates
• Ensure audit trails and visibility across the DevOps lifecycle

This marks a significant enhancement to GitLab’s DevSecOps strategy, providing even greater control without compromising on speed or agility. Compliance is now embedded natively into development workflows, supporting internal audits while reducing the risk of external non-compliance.

If you operate in a heavily regulated industry or maintain extensive internal policies, this new feature could dramatically streamline your delivery pipelines.
