Select the security levels you want to apply to virtual patches. This determines which vPatch rules are in effect in your database.
For example, you can decide whether to receive alerts from low confidence rules or alerts about attacks relevant to Oracle 8i only, even when Oracle 10g is the target. This feature enables you to control the tradeoff between security level and performance. By default, Security Level (HIGH) is selected. High security was designed as the optimal high security and high performance combination.
You can view the current security level at the top right corner of the vPatch Rules page.
On the Rules page, click the vPatch Rules tab, then click the Security Level (HIGH).
In the Security Level, select the security level you want to apply, then click Save.
