 Use governance strategies to apply conformance rules and policies across agents, APIs and MCP servers. When your tenant includes *Governance* and your account has the required role, you can create, manage, and monitor these strategies to validate service design compliance, automate runtime enforcement, and maintain visibility as your portfolio grows.
 
+NOTE: The MuleSoft interface uses two terms for strategy types: *controls* (for guardrail-based strategies) and *automated policies*. In this documentation, "strategy" refers to both types unless otherwise specified.
