Compliance Verification Rules

Compliance Verification Rules

You can create, edit, and delete compliance verification rules for Windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints. You can also view and manage the tags used to dynamically group endpoints.

The following occurs when using compliance verification rules with EMS and FortiClient:

  1. EMS sends compliance verification rules to endpoints via Telemetry communication.
  2. FortiClient checks endpoints using the provided rules and sends the results to EMS.
  3. EMS receives the results from FortiClient.
  4. EMS dynamically groups endpoints together using the tag configured for each rule. You can view the dynamic endpoint groups in Compliance Verification > Host Tag Monitor. See Host Tag Monitor.
