# Delete a policy {#ariaid-title1}

Remove a policy you no longer need.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_ai_governance.ai_steward

## About this task

A policy has no pause or disable state. You must delete the policy to end enforcement.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllAI Control TowerHomeGovernPolicies.
2. Find the policy you want to remove.
3. In the More actions menu, select Delete.
4. In the confirmation dialog box, select Delete policy.  
   Deleting a policy can't be undone. Activity from the deleted policy stays available in the Enforcement activity tab.

## Result

What happens next depends on the policy type.

Threat Response
:   The policy stops responding to new detections. An agent it already took offline stays offline; reinstate it separately from Security. For details, see [Contain AI agents manually using kill switch protocol](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ydFgncmKX~gV64E4iWARPQ "Deactivate or reinstate AI agents using kill switch protocol to eliminate malicious activity and improve your security posture.").

Explicit Block
:   Access is restored at every enforcement point the policy applied to.
