Creating a security policy

Creating a security policy

You must apply the newly created antivirus profile to a security policy for inbound traffic.

  1. Go to Policy > Recipient Policy > Inbound and click New.
  2. Note that a security policy applying the antivirus profile can also be created under Policy > IP Policy > IP Policy.

  3. Click Enable.
  4. Define which groups this inbound recipient-based policy applies to under Sender Pattern and Recipient Pattern. In the example below, this policy applies to the Corp LDAP group sending any email to the Internal email address group.
  5. Under Profiles, set AntiVirus to the newly created antivirus profile.
  6. Click Create.
