Classification Rule Sets

If you have Data Classification enabled you will see this Classification Rule Sets page under the Configuration section

Here you will see the rule sets available for Data Classification. The grey rule sets are default rule sets available out of the box. You cannot edit these default rule sets.

Rule Sets Page

The Rules Count column will show how many rules exist in each rule set. The Containers Count column shows how many buckets a particular rule set is enabled on whether it be for event-based or retro-based data classification.

Creating a custom rule set

You can create your own custom rule set by clicking the Create Rule Set button. A custom rule set will allow you to mix and match rules from any default rule set available. This way you can build a rule set based on the specific frameworks and data you need to classify on.

Additionally, you can add your own custom classification rules you've created as part of this custom rule set.

Select your rules

Once you have the rules selected for your custom rule set you can click the save button to create the rule set. After that all you need to do is enable event-based protection on a bucket or create a DC schedule.

Rule Locales

You'll notice that some rules can be global since the type of information that is being classified isn't formatted in a specific way. Other rules can have localized options since the type of information you need to classify on can be different based on country.

Select either the entire rule or a specific country in the list

Filtering Locales

You can filter the rule sets down to show only rules for specific countries. Select the country you want to filter by from the Regions dropdown.

Search for a specific locale in the Regions dropdown
