# Why is my Workload Protection zone missing?
{: #troubleshoot-project-wp}
{: troubleshoot}
{: support}

When you configure an architecture for deployment, you're unable to use a policy from your instance of Workload Protection to scan your configuration for compliance. 
{: shortdesc}

When you edit a configuration in a project and select your instance of Workload Protection, a zone that you expect to select for compliance scanning is not available.
{: tsSymptoms}

The zone might no longer exist, or your Workload Protection instance is not enabled for Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM). 
{: tsCauses}

Make sure that the zone exists, and that your account is enabled for CSPM. For more information, go to [Implementing CSPM for IBM Cloud](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/workload-protection?topic=workload-protection-cspm-implement&interface=ui&format=markdown).
