1. A method, comprising:

  • capturing, from a policy registry via a processor within a runtime policy correlation data structure, source policy identification information of a registry service policy that comprises a source policy identifier (ID), a source policy name, and a source policy uniform resource locator (URL);

    correlating, within the runtime policy correlation data structure using a source policy reference key, the captured source policy identification information with configured runtime policy enforcement processing rules and processing actions established during policy binding at a policy enforcement point (PEP) that cause the PEP to enforce runtime provisions of the registry service policy;

    capturing per-transaction service policy enforcement information that documents which configured runtime policy enforcement activities are performed by the PEP on individual transactions;

    correlating, within a per-transaction service data table, the captured per-transaction service policy enforcement information with the captured source policy identification information using the source policy reference key;

    receiving a query from a policy monitoring point (PMP) for the correlated per-transaction service policy enforcement information of at least one transaction; and

    providing the correlated per-transaction service policy enforcement information of the at least one transaction from the per-transaction service data table in response to the query from the PMP.
