📏 SLO Libraries (copy these into contracts & dashboards)
- Connectivity & Fabric → latency/jitter/loss targets by DIA, Ethernet, wavelength, MAN, WLAN, Private 5G.
- Security & Trust → ZTNA attach, DMARC rollout (≤ 60–90 days), MTTD/MTTC, immutability coverage, unapproved change = 0.
- Voice/CCaaS → MOS ≥ 4.1, PDD ≤ 1–2 s (local), 2–4 s (long-haul), E911 test cadence.
- Cloud & DR → policy enforce time ≤ 60–120 s, RTO/RPO tiers, evidence delivery ≤ 60–120 s.
See each domain page’s SLO Guardrails table for ready-to-paste values.
🧱 Policy-as-Code & Reference Snippets
- Cloud guardrails — deny-public, CMEK-required, tag enforcement, region controls, image/ingress policies (OPA/Gatekeeper).
- Network templates — EVPN/VXLAN roles, QoS class maps (EF/AF/BE), MACsec enablement, DHCP snooping/DAI/IPSG.
- Security posture — ZTNA app rules, SASE profiles, WAF/Bot rules, DMARC policy & MTA-STS/TLS-RPT.
- Evidence hooks — SIEM/SOAR exporters, runbook stubs (isolate/revoke/rekey/rollback/patch).
