Technical Note: ZoneFox 4.0 - What is a policy

Key Concepts

ZoneFox policies inspect incoming events in real time as they arrive from the endpoints.  

A policy is a set of criteria to which incoming events are compared.  An alert will be raised if an event matches the criteria. You can setup policies to tell ZoneFox when you want to be notified about particular activities.  

The alerts page show you all alerts which have been 'fired' based on the policies you have built.
