Creating or editing policies
The Veritas Information Classifier comes with a large number of built-in policies, but you can create custom policies if the built-in ones do not meet your needs.
You can also edit existing policies. However, in the case of the built-in policies, the changes that you can make are quite limited.
To create or edit a policy
- At the left of the Veritas Information Classifier, click Policies.
- The following diagram shows the New Policy dialog.
Do one of the following:
To create a policy from the beginning, click New.
To create a policy by copying an existing one, select the policy and then click Copy.
To edit an existing policy, select the policy and then click Edit.
- Set the fields as follows:
Name
Specifies the policy name. The name must be unique, and it can contain up to 100 alphanumeric, space, and special characters.
Status
Enables or disables the policy. You must enable the policy if you want the Veritas Information Classifier to check for and tag the items that match the policy.
Description
(Optional.) Provides a short description of the policy for display in the Veritas Information Classifier.
Tags
Nominates one or more tags that you want to apply to the items that match the policy conditions. Click the Tags field to choose from a list of the available tags.
Conditions
Specifies one or more conditions that an item must meet for the Veritas Information Classifier to consider it a match.
- Test the policy by clicking Browse and then choosing an item that ought to match it.
Select the Include text in images checkbox for extracting information from images and performing classification using Optical character recognition (OCR).
Note:
The Include text in images checkbox is displayed only when the Tesseract software is installed on the system where Veritas Information Classifier is running.
After a few moments, the Veritas Information Classifier indicates whether it has found a match. When this is the case, you can click Show details to see the matching text and confidence levels.
The test functionality on policies page also shows risk level and risk score information in details pane as a part of classification.
Note:
This test facility can help to confirm that the policy works as you expect. However, we recommend that you run the PowerShell cmdlet Get-EVClassificationVICTags against one or more test items to make certain that this is the case.
- Click Save.
Click Show details to see the classification results.
