Planning for Compliance Rules
Before you define and assign compliance rules, do these planning steps:
1. Identify the applications, files, registry keys, and process names that are required or not
permitted on endpoint computers.
2. Collect all information and Remediation files necessary for user compliance. Use this
information when you create Remediation objects to use in compliance rules.
Compliance rules can prevent users from accessing required network resources when
they are not compliant. Think about how to make it easy for users to become compliant.
3. Make sure that the Firewall rules gives access to Remediation resources. For example,
sites from which service packs or Anti-virus updates can be downloaded.
Note - In Windows 7, make sure the Interactive Service Detection service is
running. This is necessary for Remediation files (running with system
credentials) that must interact with the user.
4. Define rule alerts and login policies to enforce the rules after deployment.
