Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to assess compliance of a virtual computing environment. An example method disclosed herein to assess compliance of computing resources of a computing environment includes monitoring for an occurrence of a change in a computing resource in the computing environment, and in response to detecting the occurrence and without waiting for batch testing, assessing compliance of the computing resource with a compliance policy.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to identify priorities of compliance assessment results of a virtual computing environment. An example method disclosed herein to identify priorities for defects includes associating, with a processor, a first defect with an asset class and a repair action, the first defect indicative of a computing resource being out of compliance with a policy, determining, with the processor, a priority for the defect based on past repair actions performed to correct past defects corresponding to the same asset class, and displaying the defect in rank order with a plurality of other defects based on the priority.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to measure compliance of a virtual computing environment. An example method disclosed herein includes determining, with a processor, a maximum surprisal value of a policy to be enforced on a computing resource in a computing environment, the maximum surprisal value corresponding to a probability of the computing resource being in-compliance with the policy without testing the computing resource with respect to the policy, determining a current surprisal value of the computing resource with respect to the policy based on knowledge of at least one condition of policy being at least one of satisfied by or inapplicable to the computing resource, and determining a compliance score of the computing resource with respect to the policy based on the maximum surprisal value of the policy and the current surprisal value of the computing resource with respect to the policy.
