Enable or Disable Policies

You can enable or disable any configured policy in your system (both pre-configured and user-defined). You can turn on/off individual policies or you can select multiple policies to turn on/off in a bulk process.

Note: Most of the policies depend on queries to collect data. If some or all of the query functions are disabled, then the related policies are not effective. You can activate queries from Active Queries, see Active Queries.

To enable or disable a policy:

  1. Go to Policies.

    The page lists all policies configured in the system, grouped by Policy Category.

  2. To enable or disable the policy, click the Status toggle next to the relevant policy.

To turn on/off multiple policies:

  1. Go to Policies.

    The page lists all policies configured in the system, grouped by Policy Category.

  2. Select the check box next for each of the policies you want to turn on/off. Use one of the following selection methods:

    • Select individual Policies — Click the check box next to specific policies.

    • Select Policy Types — Click the check box next to a policy type heading.

    • Select all Policies — Click the check box in the title bar at the top of the table.

  3. From the Bulk Actions drop-down box, select the desired action (Enable or Disable).

    OT Security enables or disables the selected policies.
