Configuring a corporate security policy
You configure your corporate security policy in the FortiClient Manager module of the
FortiManager unit. It is simplest to apply security policies to client groups. If you have
already created client groups, you can create security policies for those groups. If your
FortiClient computer are ungrouped, you can create a client group for the purpose of
applying security policies.
To configure a security policy
1 In the FortiClient Manager, go to Client/Group > Group.
2 Select the client group that you want to configure.
3 From the FortiClient menu, select VPN > Security Policy.
4 Select any of the following policies that you want to enforce:
• Firewall must be enabled
• Realtime AV must be enabled
• Webfiltering must be enabled
• Antispam must be enabled
5 Select Apply.
6 Repeat steps 2 through 5 if you want to create security policies for other client groups.
7 Go to Manage > Deploy Configuration.
8 Select the client group(s) where you created security policies and then select Deploy.
When the updated configuration is deployed to the FortiClient computer, their
configuration settings are made compliant with the policy. On the FortiClient Console
General tab, the Corporate Policy Compliance section shows the status message,
“FortiClient is compliant with corporate policy.”
Tip: You can also configure corporate security policies using the installer public property
COMPLIANCE_POLICY. See “Appendix A: Installer Public Properties” on page 57 for more
information.
