A policy set for a single computer will be processed before what?

When determining the hierarchy of policy processing in ThreatLocker, it's crucial to understand that policies are designed to provide specific settings and rules for different scopes. A policy set for a single computer is intended to provide tailored security parameters that directly reflect the unique requirements of that individual system.

In this case, a policy for a computer group targets multiple systems, which may share common characteristics or needs. However, when a specific policy is established for an individual computer, it takes precedence in order to ensure that the unique configurations and settings tailored for that specific machine are enforced before any more generalized group policies come into play.

This ensures that any restrictions or allowances that are specially designated for the single computer are processed first, allowing for a more granular control of security settings. It helps in scenarios where some computers might need exceptions or specific settings that differ from the broader group policies, thereby maintaining a level of customized security while still being part of a larger network structure.
