Create Web & Application Policies

  1. Click Web & Application Policy and click New.
  2. Enter a Policy Name (required) and a Description (optional).
    The policy name must include only

    alphanumeric characters, with no special characters other than the underscore, and no spaces.

  3. Select a Content Inspection Type to specify the type of scanning that the policy will trigger.
    The options are None (no specific type of scanning), DLP Scan, Malware Scan, or Anomalous Access.
  4. If you select Malware Scan, the Native Scan Engine toggle appears.
    It is enabled by default, which will enable the native scan engine to perform a scan even if you use an external service for scanning.
  5. (Optional) To specify a time range in which the cloud application will be available, click the Time Window toggle.
    Then, select these options:
    • The days of the week for which you want to apply a time window
    • The time range for those days

    To add another time window, click the + icon at the right, then select the days and time ranges for that time window.

    To add a time range for after office hours, (for example, from 7:00 PM to 8:00 AM), you need to configure two time-window settings: the first for the hours up until midnight; the second for the hours starting at midnight and ending at the desired morning time.

    To set after-office hours time window options:

  6. Set a time range from 7:00 PM until 0:00 (midnight).
  7. Click the + sign to add a time range from 0:00 (midnight) until 8:00 am.
  8. Click Next.
    For Context and Actions, select the options for the policy type you choose in the previous step.
    • Policies with DLP Scan or None
    • Policies with Malware Scan
