Global rules allow you to enforce and track block rules that have a global scope over
all protected computers in your network. Currently, this is only available for block
rules. Generally, use the following steps to create global rules:
Procedure
- Create and configure an
ApplicationControlGlobalRule
object. - Use an
ApplicationControlGlobalRuleApi
object to create the global rule on Workload Security.
What to do next
Also see the Create and add new global rules operation in the API Reference. For more information about global rules, see the
Use the API to create shared and global rulesets.
The following example adds software to the global rules:
# Create the rules new_rules = [] for sha256 in sha256_list: new_rule = api.ApplicationControlGlobalRule() new_rule.sha256 = sha256 new_rules.append(new_rule) # Add the rules global_rules_api = api.GlobalRulesApi(api.ApiClient(configuration)) rules_list = api.ApplicationControlGlobalRules() rules_list.application_control_global_rules = new_rules return global_rules_api.add_global_rules(rules_list, api_version)
