of the ePO group in which the system is placed. For more information, see How Policy Assignment
Rules Work in the ePolicy Orchestrator4.5 Product Guide .
NOTE:
Policy assignment rules are enforced only if the user logs on as the interactive user. If
a user logs on with a runas command, or logs on to a remote desktop or terminal service where
the user's logon is not set to interactive, the policy assigned to the system and not the one
assigned to the user is enforced.
For recommendations on selecting and implementing SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus policy settings,

Types of policy categories
For the SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus software, configure these policy categories:
• Authorize List — Sites that users are authorized to access, and rules for accessing the
individual resources on the sites. Several instances of this policy can be applied, resulting
in one combined, effective policy.
• Enforcement Messaging — Text displayed to users who attempt to access a site, phishing
page, or file download that has been blocked, warned, or allowed.
• Enable/Disable — Whether the SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus client software is disabled or
enabled for all managed systems assigned this policy, and whether it can be disabled on
individual systems.
• General — Settings required for managed systems to access the Internet through a proxy
server, to turn on Observe mode to tune enforcement rules, and to allow SiteAdvisor
Enterprise Plus to be removed with Add or Remove Programs.
• Event Tracking — Settings to track domain visits and downloads. If the Web Filtering for
Endpoint extension and Web Reporter are installed, you can also track pages views and
downloads within a domain and send information to Web Reporter for reports.
• Prohibit List — Sites that users are blocked from accessing. Several instances of this policy
can be applied resulting in one combined, effective policy.
• Rating Actions — Rules for user access based on the safety ratings and threat factors
SiteAdvisor assigns to sites, pages on a site, or file downloads.
NOTE:
A Content Actions policy appears if the Web Filtering for Endpoint extension is installed.
See the Web Filtering for Endpoint and Web Reporter Appendix for details.
