      Creating a New Policy

      How-to create a Policy in the ZeroLock® Security Environment.

        The use of policies simplifies the work of ZeroLock® Management Console (ZMC) administrators as they allow for the grouping of rules instead of applying rules individually to an endpoint. 

        The rules that make-up a policy group will determine the actions processes are allowed to take on ZeroLock protected systems.

        1. From the ZeroLock Management Console (ZMC) dashboard menu go to CONTROL POLICIES | POLICIES | ADD NEW POLICY.  
          Step_1_Policies page

        2. On the New Policy screen, enter a name and description for the policy.  Though a policy need not have any rules to be recognized by the ZeroLock® environment, for this example, three rules will be added.  To accomplish this, click ADD RULES.

        3. Select the rules from the displayed list then click ADD SELECTED.

        4. The last step is to select CREATE and the policy is created.
