Create a Policy Set

Create a policy set and attach the policy statement that monitors the payroll data set for unauthorized access. Then associate the policy set with the Alert component.

Note: A policy set is a group of one or more policy statements. Create policy statements before you create a policy set.

Follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Quick Links module and click Administer Compliance Policy interface.
  2. Click the applicable Compliance Policy Administration interface instance from the Administration pane.
  3. Click Policy Administration, Policy Set, Create a Policy Set.

    The Create a Policy Set window opens.

  4. Type a policy set name and description.

    The Compliance Policy Administration interface component STC JCL uses this information to associate a component with a policy set. Policy set names are case-sensitive.

  5. Select Yes for the Activated setting.

    Yes indicates that the policy set is available for use by a component. No indicates that the policy set is being created and is not yet available.

  6. Click Attach Policy Statements in the Policy Statements Attached pane.
  7. Select the policy statements that you want to add to the policy set, and click Attach.

    Note: To add all available policy statements on this dialog, click the check box next to Select.

  8. Click Create Policy Set.

    The policy set is created.

  9. Associate the policy set with the Alert component. To do so, complete the following steps:
    1. Ensure that the ALERT subtask is up and running on the system where the payroll data set exists.
    2. Add the policy set name to the parameter file that is associated with the Alert component.
    3. Issue the refresh command for the ALERT subtask. Doing so ensures that the updated policy set is used.

    The Alert component includes the policy set.

By creating this policy statement and policy set, you can monitor each time an unauthorized employee attempts to access sensitive data.
