About the Tagging policy
Tagging policies act as protection to prevent accidental exposure of organizational data by assigning tags to data policies. These tags function at the Hub level and are assigned upon ingestion or when content matches specified RegExs or Tagging policies. The assigned Tags outline the output behaviors for the data.
Table:
Tag policy | Description |
|---|---|
Regular expressions (RegExs) | RegExs can identify patterns representing sensitive content and associate one or more tags to determine protection behaviors. They are evaluated during Cohesity Alta SaaS Protection search indexing. |
Tagging policies | Tagging policies offer a more granular way of applying Tags at the Stor level. Use Tagging policies if a particular Stor's content needs a unique level of protection that requires you to leverage Stor-level metadata in the policy definition for applying Tags. |
The tags can have one or more Tag Behaviors enforced on items with the associated Tag through RegEx or Tagging policy.
