Governance Model
One-size-fits-all policies don't work in the enterprise. PeriMind uses a three-tier federated model that balances central control with domain autonomy — enabling organizations to meet regulatory and compliance requirements while preserving team agility.

Policy Tiers
Organization-wide policies that apply everywhere. The guardrails that cannot be overridden — and the foundation for meeting regulatory and compliance requirements across jurisdictions.
Team-specific policies that layer on top of enterprise rules. Platform owners control their domain.
The most specific policies. Individual teams configure their agents within the boundaries set above.
How It Works
Immutable. Apply to every agent, every domain, every team.
Extend enterprise rules. Cannot weaken them. Platform owners set boundaries.
Most specific layer. Configures individual agents within all boundaries above.
Policies cascade downward. Enterprise rules are immutable. Domain rules extend them. Team rules are the most specific layer — and can never weaken the policies above.
In February 2026, NIST formalized this direction with the AI Agent Standards Initiative — establishing security, identity, and governance as national priorities for autonomous AI systems.
