You can assign VM workloads to Sensor Groups and thereby receive a policy assignment.
Important: On 27 November 2023, Asset Groups became available to
Carbon Black Cloud customers.
Carbon Black recommends that you upgrade from Sensor Groups to Asset Groups as soon as it is operationally feasible for your organization. Sensor Groups will be phased out 01 December 2024. See
Asset Groups and Sensor Groups and
Upgrading to Asset Groups from Sensor Groups.
By default, each newly installed sensor on the workload is assigned the Standard policy. You can change the policy rules assigned to the sensors by creating sensor groups. All the sensors in the sensor groups receive automatic assignment to a policy depending on the criteria you set and the associated metadata. For information about setting up a criteria, see Sensor Group Criteria Configuration Details.
Procedure
