Rules

Displays a list of the most recent Intrusion Prevention, Integrity Monitoring, and Log Inspection Rules that have been downloaded to the Deep Security Manager's database. If required you can reapply the current Rule set to computers being protected by Deep Security or rollback to a previous Rule set. You can configure the number of Rule Updates that are kept in the Deep Security Manager's database by going to the Administration > System Settings > Storage tab.

From the Rule Updates page, you can:

• Import () a Rule Update
