Policies are applied to SSH/Telnet, SQL, and HTTP connections. Policies might be White Key and/or Black Key to permit or restrict users to use defined commands.

Policy groups consist of policies. If there are black and white keys defined in the same policy group, the system restricts the black key commands first.

When you apply policy groups to the device groups, you define a Policy Realm.
