Update exceptions of current rule

It is possible to change multiple exceptions in a rule at once. You can change as many exceptions as you want. This overrides the settings in the rule and reduces time and effort involved in updating multiple settings.

From the Main > Policy Management > DLP Policies or Discovery Policies > Manage Policies page:

  1. Select the rule to modify.
  2. From the toolbar, select More Actions > Batch Operations > Update exceptions of current rule.
  3. In the Selected Exceptions box, select the exceptions that you want to modify.
  4. In the Fields to Update box, select the fields to update.
  5. For each field, update the properties in the right pane.
    Field Properties
    State Select whether you want to enable or disable all the selected exceptions. This changes their state.
    Severity & Action

    Specify the incident severity and action plan to apply to all of the selected rules.

    If you are using Risk-Adaptive Protection to determine actions according to the source’s risk level, select an action plan for each one of the risk levels (1-5), and a Dynamic User Protection Severity value. Click Add to create a new action plan and add it to all risk level action plan lists. You can then select the new action plan for each risk level. See Custom Policy Wizard - Severity and Action for more details.
