+# ALZ Policies - Extra
+
+This document describes additional ALZ custom policy definitions and initiatives that are not assigned by default in ALZ, but are provided as they may assist some consumers of ALZ in specific scenarios where they can assign these additional policies to help them meet their objectives. We also provide guidance on how to handle certain situations as some of the policies require additional considerations prior to assigning.
+
+> For the complete list of Azure Landing Zones custom policies, please use [AzAdvertizer](https://www.azadvertizer.net/azpolicyadvertizer_all.html), and change `type` to `ALZ`.
+
+## Additional ALZ Custom Policies for consideration
+
+ALZ provides several additional policies that are not assigned by default but that can be used for specific scenarios should they be required.
+
+| Policy | Description | Notes |
+|------------|-------------|-------------|
+| Deny-Appgw-without-Waf | Application Gateway should be deployed with WAF enabled | Use to ensure Application Gateways are deployed with Web Application Firewall enabled |
+| Deny-Private-Dns-Zones | Deny the creation of private DNS | For organizations that centralize core networking functions, use this policy to prevent the creation of additional Private DNS Zones under specific scopes |
+| Deny-Subnet-Without-Udr | Subnets should have a User Defined Route | Should you require all network traffic be directed to an appliance for inspection, you can use this policy to ensure UDR is associated with a subnet |
+| Deny-Udr-With-Specific-Nexthop | User Defined Routes with 'Next Hop Type' set to 'Internet' or 'VirtualNetworkGateway' should be denied | Refining `Deny-Subnet-Without-Udr` you can ensure non-compliant UDRs are denied (e.g., bypassing a firewall) |
+| Deny-Vnet-Peering | Deny vNet peering | Use to prevent vNet peering under specific scopes (e.g., Sandbox management group) |
+| Deny-Vnet-Peering-To-Non-Approved-Vnets | Deny vNet peering to non-approved vNets | Use to control vNet peering under specific scopes, like in the Corp management group, only allow peering to the hub vNet. |
+| Deploy-Budget | Deploy a default budget on all subscriptions under the assigned scope | Set a default budget for a specific scope, like setting a $500 budget on all subscriptions in the Sandbox management group |
+| Deploy-Vnet-Hubspoke | Deploy Virtual Network with peering to the hub | Automatically peer a new virtual network with the hub, for example, in the Corp management group |
+| Deploy-Windows-DomainJoin | Deploy Windows Domain Join Extension with Key Vault configuration | Windows Domain Join a virtual machine using domain name and password stored in Key Vault as secrets |

+## 2. ALZ, Workload Specific Compliance and Regulated Industries
+
+The Azure Landing Zone is designed to be a flexible and scalable solution that can be used by organizations in a variety of industries. However, organizations in regulated industries (FSI, Healthcare, etc.) may need to take additional steps to ensure compliance with industry-specific regulations. These regulations often commonly have a consistent set of controls to cover, like CMK, locking down public endpoints, TLS version enforcement, logging etc.
+
+To support the additional control requirements of these industries, we're providing the following additional initiatives that enhance the security and compliance posture of the Azure Landing Zone:
+
+> **Please Note:** These are meant to help customers across all regulated industries (FSI, Healthcare, etc.) and not be aligned to specific regulatory controls, as there are already policy initiatives available for these via [Azure Policy](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/security-controls-policy) & [Microsoft Defender for Cloud](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/defender-for-cloud/regulatory-compliance-dashboard)

+### ALZ Policies and Initiatives and the escape character
+
+We've had a number of issues and pull requests submitted specifically around the extra bracket `[` that is present in all policies and initiatives in this repo.
+
+> NOTE: The policies and initiatives in this repo are NOT intended to be deployed directly in Azure. You cannot copy the definition and deploy the policy directly without editing first. If you want to deploy a specific policy you must first remove the additional leading `[` character from the policy or initiative definition. Alternatively, to deploy a specific policy directly in Azure Policy, please use AzAdvertizer to lookup the policy and use the `copy definition` button to copy a clean version of the policy ready for use (this will remove all the extra `[`).
+
+The reason for this is that the policies and initiatives in this repo are intended to be used as part of the ALZ deployment process, and are used to generate the ARM templates that are deployed to Azure. The leading `[` character is required to support the generation of the ARM templates.
