Playbooks let you detect, identify and remediate misconfiguration and permissions issues automatically and continuously over time. The benefits of these policies are not limited to security; in fact, they can also impact employee productivity and cost. |
How do policies work?
The policy process is organized into three key steps:
- Detection: the system automatically runs a large number of checks to identify any anomalies.
-
Validation: all detected anomalies are evaluated and marked as either exceptions or something that must be managed.
This lets you easily address the settings that fall outside of your organization’s standard policies. Exceptions can be set at a granular level, down to individual users. -
Remediation: anomalies are resolved quickly and consistently.
For each anomaly, you have two options:- have the anomaly resolved automatically;
- handle the anomaly manually.
Other stakeholders, such as managers, can be involved to help address the problem.
