Web policy

Web policies keep your organization safe from attacks that result from web browsing and help you increase productivity. You can use web policies to control your users' web browsing activities.

You can use the base policy, which includes the default actions and is used if you don't have other policies. You can also edit the base policy to set your own default actions. Alternatively, you can add new policies to meet your organization's needs.

You can add policies based on users, device postures, applications, site lists, and web categories. You can define restrictions on file downloads and uploads, as well as set data boundaries.
