Speed matters. That's why guardrails now sync locally and run on your machine. The result? Up to 200x faster execution, due to significantly better cache hits and dramatically less network traffic.
Our servers still identify which guardrails to run and distribute them to your local runners, so you get full access to everything in the Zenable system. But once synced, everything executes locally - making it more privacy preserving and secure. No more round trips to the cloud to run checks.
Want to go further? You can now configure custom guardrails via our new configuration file at ~/.zenable/zenable.yaml. See the CLI documentation for details. And if you haven't already, check out our brand new CLI that makes all of this possible.
