Policy Server Policies and Rules<br />

<strong>10</strong>-<strong>10</strong><br />

Policy Servers use configurable rules and policies to help enforce your organization’s<br />

security guidelines.<br />

Rules include specific criteria that Policy Servers use to compare with the security<br />

posture of <strong>OfficeScan</strong> clients. If the client security posture matches the criteria you<br />

configure in a rule, the client and server carry out the actions you specify in the rule (see<br />

Policy Server and <strong>OfficeScan</strong> Client Actions on page <strong>10</strong>-12).<br />

Policies include one or more rules. Assign one policy to each registered <strong>OfficeScan</strong> server<br />

on the network for both outbreak mode and normal mode (see Outbreak Protection on<br />

page 5-57 for more information on network modes).<br />

If the <strong>OfficeScan</strong> client security posture matches the criteria in a rule that belongs to the<br />

policy, the <strong>OfficeScan</strong> client carries out the actions you configure in the rule. However, if<br />

the client security posture does not match any of the criteria in any of the rules<br />

associated with the policy, you can still configure default actions in the policy for the<br />

client and server to carry out (see Policy Server and <strong>OfficeScan</strong> Client Actions on page <strong>10</strong>-12).<br />

Tip: If you want certain clients in an <strong>OfficeScan</strong> domain to have different outbreak and<br />

normal mode policies from other clients in the same domain, <strong>Trend</strong> <strong>Micro</strong> suggests<br />

restructuring the domains to group clients with similar requirement (see <strong>OfficeScan</strong><br />

Domains on page 2-20).<br />

Rule Composition<br />

Rules include security posture criteria, default responses associated with clients, and<br />

actions that clients and the Policy Server perform.
