Turn an emergency response policy on or off¶
Emergency response acts on a single issue, without waiting for the case, when a policy matches: what the issue is about, which source or rule it came from, and the assessment's verdict and confidence. The shipped policies are identity_compromise, endpoint_execution and email_delivered; each is on or off per tenant, and every action they run is still gated by shadow for the issue_emergency actor.
Steps¶
-
List the policies and their state:
-
Turn one off, or back on:
-
Protect what must never be contained, for every policy:
Expected: the listing shows the policy's enabled state and the protect list. A policy that matched but was blocked by protection escalates the case to the configured severity instead of acting.
Why it works this way¶
Policies decide whether to act; shadow decides whether the vendor is called. Turning a policy off stops the decision; leaving it on with issue_emergency in shadow shows every decision in the War Room and the dataset without touching the estate.
