Change the priority of an existing protection rule

When multiple protection rules exist, you can define the priority of each rule. Priority determines which rule applies to an asset when that asset matches multiple rules and those rules have conflicting actions.

About this task

For example, if an asset matches several protection rules and each rule specifies a different protection policy, then the rule with the highest priority determines the policy assignment.

Protection rule priorities are integers. Smaller integers represent a higher priority.

Steps

  1. Select Protection > Protection Rules.
    The Protection Rules window appears.
  2. To change a protection rule's priority, select the rule and then click Up or Down.
    Remember that the smaller integer has the higher priority.
