Apply Policy Remediation
Before you begin
-
Ensure you take a backup of all the policies before applying remediations.
-
Ensure you have a few policy remediations that are staged to be applied. If there are no staged changes, the Apply Remediation button is disabled.
-
Ensure you have verified the Policy Last Modified, Policy Last Analysed dates and timestamps, and the number of rules that you have marked for remeditation, at the top-right corner, so that you are sure which version of the policy you are applying the remediations to.
Procedure
Step 1 | In the Policy Analyzer and Optimizer page, select the policy to see details about the analysis on the right pane and click View analysis details & optimize. | ||
Step 2 | Click the remediation tab that contains the anomalies that you want to fix. | ||
Step 3 | Expand a category and select the check box next to the anomaly category to stage all observations in that category, or select the check box next to individual observations to stage only the remediations that you want to apply. Repeat this step in other remediation tabs, as needed.
| ||
Step 4 | Select the appropriate action for the selected rules.
| ||
Step 5 | Click Apply Remediation to commit the changes. | ||
Step 6 | Read through the confirmation pop-up, which contains a gist of all the remediations that will be applied, and ensure you are not applying remediations to policies that you do not want remediated. | ||
Step 7 | Click Apply. After remediation is complete, the selected rules will be updated. The updated policies are automatically analyzed to generate a new summary and highlight any remaining issues. | ||
Step 8 | You can click Download Optimization Report. The remediation report contains consolidated data of all the remediations applied and the rules they were applied to. When you select a policy from the Policy Analyzer and Optimizer page, you can view the Remediation History from the right pane, which includes data about the date and time of the remediation, the user who initiated the remediation, and the remediation status. You can also download the remediation report from the same pop-up. All the remediations are recorded and are available under Remediation History, with information such as date and time of the remediation, the user who performed the remediation, and so on.
