This\npage provides information about its key components.\n\nAssured Workloads folders\n-------------------------\n\nAn Assured Workloads folder is the top-level regulatory boundary for\nyour workloads. Each Assured Workloads folder is configured with (and\nactively enforces) controls that meet the selected\n[control package's](/assured-workloads/docs/control-packages) regulatory\nrequirements. Assured Workloads folders are also the container for your\nresources that must adhere to those requirements, such as projects that contain\nyour workloads. Assured Workloads folders and their resources are\nconstantly [monitored](/assured-workloads/docs/monitor-folder) for adherence to\ncompliance requirements.\n\nFor example, if you need to meet the regulatory requirements for Impact Level 4\n(IL4), you would\n[create an Assured Workloads folder](/assured-workloads/docs/create-folder)\nfor IL4, and then create or [migrate](/assured-workloads/docs/migrate-workload)\nprojects and resources to that Assured Workloads folder. Inside the\nfolder, those projects will be configured to enforce IL4's regulatory\nrequirements, and you will be notified if any resources fall out of compliance.\n\nTo ensure that all of your organization's resources are compliant with a\nspecific control package, you can create an Assured Workloads folder\nas the parent for all of your other folders, projects, and resources. By making\nthe top-level folder an Assured Workloads folder, its controls will\nbe inherited by all child resources in the\n[Google Cloud resource hierarchy](/resource-manager/docs/cloud-platform-resource-hierarchy).\nFor more information, see\n[How to set compliance controls for your Google Cloud organization](/blog/products/identity-security/how-to-set-compliance-controls-for-your-google-cloud-organization).\n| **Note:** Any Assured Workloads environment created before the introduction of Assured Workloads folders continues to be supported. Although it is not required, we recommend that you migrate to Assured Workloads folders if it is possible to do so.\n\nAssured Workloads key management project\n----------------------------------------\n\nDepending on the control package you select, Assured Workloads can\nalso create a **key management project** inside the Assured Workloads\nfolder to store your CMEK encryption keys. Having one project for keys and\nanother for resources establishes\n[separation of duties](/kms/docs/separation-of-duties) between security\nadministrators and developers.\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- Learn how to [create an Assured Workloads folder](/assured-workloads/docs/create-folder).\n- Learn which [products are supported](/assured-workloads/docs/supported-products) for each control package.\n- Learn how to [migrate a workload](/assured-workloads/docs/migrate-workload)."]]
