The policy list displays the information and status of policies created by all users. When a new endpoint registers to Control Manager, it goes through the filtered policies in the list in descending order. Control Manager assigns the new endpoint to a filtered policy when the following conditions are both satisfied:
  • The new endpoint matches the target criteria of the policy
  • The policy creator has the permission to manage the new endpoint
