The following table describes the actions and remediation methods that Network VirusWall Enforcer can perform in response to policy violations.

Method	Target	Description
Monitor	Endpoint	Tags the endpoint as noncompliant and applies a more aggressive assessment schedule
Block	Endpoint	Blocks endpoint traffic until the next assessment
Redirect to URL	Web traffic	Opens a specified URL when a blocked or quarantined endpoint attempts to open a website; with this method selected, you can also specify: Allow off-page navigation—select this option to allow endpoint users to follow links from the specified URL.
