Changing a security policy priority

You can change priority for your security policies to set up flexible protection.

If several policies are applicable for a detected item, only the policy with the highest priority is applied. If several items are detected in one message, only the policy with the highest priority is applied for each detection type (malware, phishing, spam, mass mail, or a specific attachment format).

To change priority for a security policy:

1. Open the Kaspersky Security for Microsoft Office 365 Management Console.
2. In the left part of the page, select the Protection settings section.
3. In the upper part of this section, select the Exchange Online subsection.
4. In the line that corresponds to the required security policy, click the up arrow (↑) to increase the policy priority or the down arrow (↓) to decrease the policy priority.

   The smaller the priority value, the higher the priority. For example, if you have 6 policies, policy with priority value 1 has the highest priority, while policy with priority value 6 has the lowest priority.

The priority of the selected security policy is changed.
