SkySync evaluates the tracking groups in priority order--the order they are sorted within the policy. Although a file may match the rules for multiple tracking groups, it can only exist in one tracking group. Therefore, so it will be assigned to the first tracking group that is matched. Therefore, you should order your tracking groups from highest risk level to lowest risk level to ensure content is always matched against the higher risk levels first.
Cost
Each tracking group can be assigned a cost. This is the amount that a file in the tracking group could cost the company in legal fees or penalties if it remains in its current state. For example, if a file contains sensitive data and is located on a share, it could cost the company a set amount of money in fines if the company’s data were to be audited .
Assignment Rules
Assignment rules are simply a list of rules that dictate whether a file should be assigned to the group or not. Assignment rules also include a "justification" for each rule, which would be included in the audit log for traceability purposes.
The assignment rules can also contain or if a security breach allowed that file to be exposed. The cost is included in the reporting for the tracking group so you can see the total cost for the tracking group (cost times the number of files in the tracking group).
Assignment Rules
Assignment rules are a list of entity types that should be run against a file. Entity type assignments exist at both the policy level as well as the tracking group level. This is because there may be entity types that are more costly to run against content and should only be done when all previous tracking groups have been evaluated and ruled out. An example would be a custom classification entity type that only runs on videos to detect sensitive information. An assignment rule can contain one to many entity types. If a file meets the criteria for the assignment rules (matches all the listed entity types), it is added to the tracking group.
Actions
The actions for a tracking group tell SkySync what to do with the content in each tracking group. Multiple actions can be applied to the tracking group to force the remediation through an approval workflow, or you can select to take a definitive action against the content as soon as it is assigned to the tracking group.
Approval: Select this action when you want to require manual approval. You would choose this option if you want to manually take action against the content in the tracking group. The content is flagged, and you will be responsible for moving it, deleting it, etc.
Delay: This option delays any additional actions on the tracking group for the specified time. When selected, you will specify the delay value and interval (seconds, minutes, hours, or days).
Delete: SkySync will delete files that belong to the tracking group.
Move: SkySync will move the file to a specified location. When you select this action, you need to specify the connection and directory where SkySync needs to move the file.
Remediate: SkySync will mark the file as remediated. This action indicates there is no other action required.
