Wave 11 · Cloud Identity and Device Control Azure / Landing Zone / Guardrail proof Synthetic management-group + subscription drift exports

Azure landing-zone drift, policy guardrails, and platform hygiene that stay operator-readable.

This control plane turns Azure landing-zone snapshots into one platform-governance surface: missing policy assignments, owner-role drift, public ingress, Defender coverage, diagnostic gaps, stale baselines, and the remediation packets needed before audit or rollout windows drift.
