Updating an Exception Setting in Multiple Application Instances

You can use the Exception portion of a specific security control for one OCI instance to update the same setting in multiple OCI instances at once.

Prerequisites:

  • To update multiple OCI instances you must have multiple OCI instance registered in Oracle CASB Cloud Service. See Adding an OCI Instance.

  • The security control setting that you want to use to update multiple templates or OCI instances must have an Exception section.

  • The security control setting that you want to use to update multiple OCI instances must be set in the OCI instance that you open on the Update security control baseline page (before or after you open it).

When you update multiple OCI instances with the exceptions settings from a specific security control from the Update security control baseline page, settings in the Exception section are copied into the same security control in the target OCI instances. Other settings for the security control are not copied.

  1. Select Applications from the Navigation menu. If the Navigation Menu is not displayed, click the Navigation Menu icon Image of the Navigation Menu icon. to display it.
    • In card view, click the icon for the instance that you want to modify, and then in the Health Summary, select ModifyUpdate security control baseline.

    • In grid view, drop down the Action list for the instance you want to modify and select Update security control baseline.

    Tip:

    Alternatively, from the Dashboard or the Applications page, you can select Add/Modify App, Modify an app instance, Update security control baseline, and then select the application instance you want to modify and click Next.
