Trellix DLP – SaaS 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 – SaaS 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 — 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 – SaaS policies are assigned to endpoints and Trellix DLP – SaaS appliances from 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 – SaaS product you use.
