Syskit Point detects workspaces that don't have enough owners, which can make your workspaces less secure and difficult to manage.
A predefined policy - Minimum 2 Owners - is located on the Policies screen. Click the Edit (1) icon to view all defined options for the policy.
The Edit Policy dialog opens where you can:
Define the policy name (1)
Define the minimum number of required owners (2); this is set to 2 by default
Choose the severity level (3); this option is enabled by default
Enable Task Delegation (4) by clicking the toggle next to it and selecting your task delegation preferences:
Send reminder to reviewers (5) 3 work days before due date; this option is enabled by default
Choose what to do if owners don't resolve the policy vulnerability until the due date (6). The following options are available:
Perform no Action; task remains active, and owners can continue to resolve them
Reassign Task; when selected, you can define who will get the task - Manager of the Reviewer, Syskit Point Administrators, or custom recipients; this option is selected by default, and the tasks are reassigned to Manager of Reviewer; you must define a fallback user in case there is no manager of the reviewer
Automatically Archive; if selected, Syskit Point will archive Microsoft Teams/Groups where owners don't resolve the task within 15 workdays
Automatically Delete; if selected, Syskit Point will delete Microsoft Teams/Groups where owners don't resolve the task within 15 workdays
Click the checkbox to allow owners to accept risk for the policy (7)
A message (8) is displayed within the dialog in case you enable the Task Delegation option; Syskit Point will create tasks and send emails to owners the next time the underlying daily Policy Monitor job runs
Click Save (9) once you complete the policy configuration.
Please note: By default, the Minimum Number of Owners Orphaned policy vulnerability is detected when there are less than 2 active owners assigned to a workspace. If there are no active owners assigned to a workspace, the Orphaned Workspaces vulnerability is detected instead.
If 1 owner is assigned to a workspace when resolving the Orphaned Workspaces vulnerability, Syskit Point will detect the Minimum Number of Owners vulnerability.
