Trellix DLP products use a similar workflow for creating policies. A policy consists of rules, grouped into rule sets. Rules use classifications and definitions to specify what Trellix DLP detects. Rule reactions determine the action to take when data matches the rule.
Use this workflow for creating and applying policies:

1 | Create definitions — Used to create classifications and rules. |
2 | Create a classification — Define categories of sensitive data by creating classifications. Classifications are used by rule sets to define the data protection rule.
|
3 | Create a rule set and Create a rule with classification grouping — Rule sets can combine multiple data protection rules for improved coverage of data protection. Create a rule and its actions and add it to a rule set. |
4 | Assign rule sets to policies — A policy can have multiple rule sets. Before you apply rule sets to a policy, activate the rule sets. Assign the rule sets to the policy and then apply the required rule sets to the policy. |
5 | Assign and push a policy to a system — Trellix DLP policies are assigned to endpoints and Trellix DLP Network systemsfrom System Tree. You can use the Wake Up Agents option or the Break inheritance and assign the policy and settings below option to push a policy to a system. |
The options and availability for these components vary depending on which Trellix DLP product you use.
