You cannot delete default policies, but you can edit their settings.
- On the All Devices view, go to Settings > Web Protection > Protection Policy.
- Select the target policy.
- Select Edit.
- Edit the Policy settings in each of the sections as required.
- Select Save.
The updated policy is automatically downloaded to any devices that use it the next time they report to the All Devices view.
