Policy Overview

Policies enforce which devices have access to protected services. Admins can configure policies by defining which roles and device Trust Levels are allowed access to a given service. Once configured, a policy can be applied to any service type (e.g., hosted website, infrastructure service). This doc outlines an example of web, infrastructure, and Service Tunnel policy application.

Web policy example

Web policies define user access to hosted websites based on roles, Trust Level, and website endpoints (Layer 7 networking) through the Access Tier.

Limiting SSH access to a bastion host

An admin wants to limit SSH access to a bastion host. Their requirements are as follows:

Select all relevant roles, and apply the Medium or High Trust Level:
