Creating a New Security Policy

The 'Create Policy' wizard enables administrators to create new security policies and to apply them to groups of target computers. Policies can be created in three ways:

By creating a completely new policy. Administrators have the option to import local security settings as a basis for the new policy.

By using a pre-existing policy as a base.

By importing policies from a .xml file.

Policies can be created according to the particular security requirements of a group of computers.We recommend you create groups first then policies, so that the policies can be applied to the groups as required.

We also recommend you keep the 'Locally Configured' policy associated with the 'Unassigned' group until all computers have been imported into ESM. This is so ESM will not overwrite the policy on new discovered computers once the agent is installed.
