Feature Policy Report

The introduction of policies simplified the configuration of a range of our features (Take Control, Managed Antivirus, Web Protection and Risk Intelligence) and ensured that any devices using a policy are setup in exactly the same way.

Each feature has a range of default policies, and we have included the ability to create your own custom policies to precisely match your and your customer’s requirements. These policies could be created for a specific customer or site, down to individual device types.

As this can result in a large number of policies in use throughout the system, we have introduced the Feature Policy Report. With this Report you can quickly and easily view which feature policies are applied across your customer based.

As this may contain a large amount of information, there are two export options:
