    始める前に

    You can clone policies to create your own custom policies. You can clone a policy or create a child policy using any policy as a base to help you extend the existing policies without having to enter in the conditions again. All the conditions in the base policy are also inherited in the child policy. See Clone a policy or create a child policy in Security Posture Control for more information.

    You can clone any policies that are included with the application but policy matches are not reflected as key insights on the dashboard on the Home landing page. Only key insights for policies that are included with the application are displayed on the Home landing page.

    After you clone and activate any policies you create, you must create your own configured insight record in the Custom insight builder module in the workspace (the last module in the navigator panel). Only then can you view the data from your policies on the Configured insights dashboard (the second icon from the top in the workspace).

    Roles required: SPC Admin Group or SPC Analyst Group

    1. Navigate to Workspaces > Security Posture Control > List > Policies > All.

    3. Select one from the more options menu next to Activate policy.
