    Vorbereitungen

    Role required: data_privacy_admin

    Hinweis:
    Real-time protection is only enforced for user interactive sessions and not background scripts, integrations or instance data replication.

    Prozedur

    1. Navigate to All > System Security > Data privacy > Real time protection > Real time protection policies.
      Hinweis:
      Child tables inherit all configurations from parent tables and columns. For example, if a policy is defined on the Task table's description column, then the policy will apply automatically to the Incident table's description column.
    2. Select Create new policy.
      Hinweis:
      In order to create real time protection polices, you must first create at least onealert data pattern.
    3. Fill in the fields on the form:
      Field Description
      Policy name Enter a descriptive name for this alert policy. This name will help you identify the policy when managing real-time protection rules.
      Table Select the table where alert policies will monitor for sensitive data. Only one table can be selected per policy.
      Column Select the column within the table that will be monitored for sensitive data patterns.
      Action Choose the action to take when sensitive data is detected:
      • Alert and block notifies you of the infraction and prevents the action.
      • Alert notifies without blocking.
      Alert data pattern Select the data pattern that defines what sensitive data to detect.
      Hinweis:
      You can create Alert data patterns if none exist.
      Display message Enter the message users will see when their action is blocked. It should be clear and actionable so they understand why the block occurred.
    4. Toggle the Active button if you want to activate the policy.
    5. Select Create.
      The new real time protection policy is added.
