Abstract

An example apparatus to configure a workload domain for security compliance includes a configuration normalizer to generate normalized workload domain configuration settings by normalizing workload domain configuration settings of a deployed workload domain based on a format of compliance configuration settings; a drift comparator to compare the normalized workload domain configuration settings with the compliance configuration settings before deploying an application in the workload domain; a post start-up controller to generate updated workload domain configuration settings by modifying ones of the workload domain configuration settings, the modifying of the ones of the workload domain configuration settings being based on the comparison of the normalized workload domain configuration settings with the compliance configuration settings; and a compliance verifier to determine whether the updated workload domain configuration settings satisfy the compliance configuration settings.
