Cross-jurisdiction workload control systems and methods

A system for cross-jurisdictional workload control enforcement, the system comprising:

• a processor;
• a non-transitory computer-readable medium;
• and
• stored instructions translatable by the processor for:
• at design time,
• presenting, by a workload design application, a workload design interface that prompts a workload creator for input regarding a plurality of target locations and corresponding local controls;
• determining whether the local controls are available as a condition to allow the workload creator to create a workload;
• receiving, by the workload design application via the workload design interface, input indicating whether to turn on or off the local controls for individual ones of the target locations;
• monitoring actions of the workload creator and applying local controls for individual ones of the target locations that are turned on to identify tasks that the workload creator attempts to add to the workload that involve cross-jurisdictional movement of data;
• blocking an identified task from being added to the workload based on the local controls;
• creating the workload including tasks that have not been blocked
• unblocking the identified task in response to overriding the local controls;
• and
• adding the identified task to the workload.
