# Project-Level Remote Backend Enforcement

> Enforce the env zero Remote Backend for all new Terraform environments in a project using the Force Remote Backend policy in project settings.

Have you taken the env0 Remote Backend Terraform for a spin? You would probably want all of your project's Terraform environments to be created with the env0 remote backend. Now you can!

## Setting The Policy
