Configure account baseline - Agentic Cloud Governance Center - Agentic Cloud Governance Center

Before creating accounts in the account factory, configure a unified account baseline that covers identity, permissions, networking, and security settings to streamline account creation.

Procedure

Log on to the Agentic Cloud Governance Center console.
In the left-side navigation pane, choose Landing Zone > Account Factory.
On the Account Factory page, click Settings in the Orchestration for Account Baseline section.
In the Orchestration for Account Baseline dialog box, select the account baseline that you want to configure and click Confirm.

If the default baseline no longer meets your requirements, click Create Baseline to create baselines for different account purposes. This example uses the default baseline.

To delete a baseline, click the icon next to it. A baseline can only be deleted if no account uses it.
Change the name of a baseline.
1. Click the icon next to a baseline.
2. In the Edit Baseline Property dialog box, enter a name and a description.
3. Click OK.
Add baseline items.

The built-in baseline items Billing Method, Bind CloudSSO Permissions, and Guardrails cannot be deleted. You can add more baseline items on top of these defaults.
1. Click Add Baseline Items.
2. In the Add Baseline Item dialog box, select the baseline items that you want to add and click Add.
  
  Dependent baseline items are automatically selected. For example, selecting Security Group automatically selects VPC.
Configure the parameters of the baseline items.

Click the or icon next to a baseline item to configure its parameters.
Click Save.

Baseline items

Supported baseline items

Baseline item	Description	Dependent baseline item	References
Billing Method (default baseline item)	Specify a billing account for resource directory members to centrally manage enterprise fees.	Not supported	No
Bind CloudSSO Permissions (default baseline item)	Configure identities and permissions for resource directory members to reduce management risks and improve multi-account efficiency.	None	Configure identities and permissions
Guardrails (default baseline item)	Enable Cloud Config protection rules for all resource directory members from the Agentic Cloud Governance Center console to prevent unauthorized modifications to configurations and resource structures.	None	Configure protection rules centrally
RAM Password Policy	Specify password complexity requirements for RAM users, such as password length, supported characters, and password validity period.	None	Configure a password policy for RAM users
VPC	A VPC is a private network in the cloud, consisting of CIDR blocks, vSwitches, and access control lists (ACLs).	None	What is a VPC?
Security group	A security group acts as a virtual firewall for ECS instances to control inbound and outbound traffic.	VPC	Overview
Account Contact	Configure account contacts to receive notifications. Alibaba Cloud does not share contact information with third parties.	None	What do I do if the contact does not receive finance and cloud product notifications?
Message	Configure recipients for each message type. Set up recipients for account, service, and exception notifications to prevent business losses from missed alerts.	Account Contact	What do I do if the contact does not receive finance and cloud product notifications?
Activate Service	Auto-activate selected Alibaba Cloud services when an account is created. This prevents activation failures for RAM users who lack administrative permissions. Note Some Alibaba Cloud services require service-linked roles. Agentic Cloud Governance Center automatically creates these roles during service activation. See the "Service-linked roles that are automatically created when you activate specific Alibaba Cloud services" section of this topic.	None	Cloud Enterprise Network What is CDT? What is CloudMonitor? What is Key Management Service? How do I resolve errors during product activation?
RAM Role	Create RAM roles for an Alibaba Cloud account with administrative permissions on the resource directory. The account can then assume these roles as a trusted entity to perform O&M with reduced risk.	None	Overview
ECS Key Pair	Push a key pair to a specific account. Specify a key pair when you create an instance, or bind one after creation. Then use the key pair to connect to the instance.	None	Introduction of SSH key pairs
ECS Shared Image	Share an image with other Alibaba Cloud accounts for deployment on their ECS instances.	None	Share a custom image
Predefined Tag	A predefined tag is created in advance and available across all Alibaba Cloud regions. Create predefined tags during tag planning and apply them to cloud resources during implementation.	None	Add tags to ApsaraDB RDS instances
RAM User Security Settings	Manage global security settings for RAM users, including password change policies, MFA device requirements, and logon session validity.	None	Manage RAM user security settings
Configure RAM role-based SSO	Implement role-based SSO using a SAML identity provider (IdP). Employees log on to Alibaba Cloud through RAM roles, and user management stays in the local IdP without synchronizing users to Alibaba Cloud.	None	Manage SAML identity providers
