Policies and their categories
Policy information is grouped into two categories: SVA and Scan. You can create, modify, or delete as
many policies as needed under these categories. ePolicy Orchestrator provides a preconfigured McAfee
Default policy, which cannot be edited or deleted but can be copied. You then modify these copies to suit
your needs.
How policies are applied
Policies are applied to any System Tree group or system by inheritance or assignment. Inheritance
determines whether the policy settings for any system are taken from its parent.
By default, inheritance is enabled throughout the System Tree. You can break inheritance by direct
policy assignment. The Agentless deployment option, as managed by ePolicy Orchestrator, enables you
to create policies and assign them without regard to inheritance. When you break this inheritance by
assigning a new policy to a system, all groups and systems that are children of the selected system
inherit the new policy.
Configuring policies
You can create, modify, or delete as many policies as you need. The extension provides a
preconfigured McAfee Default policy, which cannot be edited or deleted but can be copied and used as a
base for new policies.
The SVA policy allows the administrator to define how and when anti-virus scans run on a hypervisor.
These policies are applied to the hypervisor instead of the VM or system. The Scan policy allows the
administrator to configure scan settings for when a threat is found.
