User-based policy assignment rules give you the ability to create user-specific policy assignment.
These assignments are enforced at the target system when a user logs on. On a managed system, the agent keeps a record of the users who log on to the network. The policy assignments you create for each user are pushed down to the system they log on to, and are cached during each agent-server communication. The ePO - SaaS server applies the policies that you assigned to each user.
When a user logs on to a managed system for the first time, there can be a slight delay while the Trellix Agent contacts its assigned server for the policy assignments specific to this user. During this time, the user has access only to the functions allowed by the default computer policy, which typically is your most secure policy.
Note
To use user-based policy assignments, register your Active Directory for use with ePO - SaaS.
