How does Anti-Malware: Policy Inheritance operate at the computer level?

Anti-Malware: Policy Inheritance in the context of Trend Micro Deep Security allows for hierarchical management of security settings, whereby certain policies can inherit configurations from higher-level policies while also providing the flexibility for settings to be overridden at a lower level if required.

When a lower-level policy or specific computer group needs to apply its unique configurations, it is capable of doing so by overriding the inherited settings from the higher-level policies. This means that the specific configurations at the lower level can effectively change or replace those inherited from the overarching policy, thus ensuring that the unique requirements of different user groups or machines can be respected and implemented.

This feature is particularly useful in environments where different departments or user groups might have varying security needs, allowing administrators to fine-tune security settings according to specific contexts while maintaining a base level of security dictated by higher-level policies.
