# 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! Introducing our brand new project-level `Force env0 Remote Backend` policy that lets you enforce the use of the env0 remote backend throughout your project.

## Setting The Policy

Go over to your project's settings -> policies:

Tick the `Force env0 Remote Backend` checkbox & save:

Now, every *new* Terraform environment, in this project, will be forced to have a remote state. See the ticked & blocked `Use env0 Remote Backend` checkbox in the environment creation view below:
