After creating a new policy, which tab must be selected to enable it?

1. Policy Overview

2. Policy Bypassed

3. Policy Settings

4. Policy Summary

The correct answer is: Policy Bypassed

The correct approach after creating a new policy is to navigate to the **Policy Settings** tab. This area is specifically designed for configuring and enabling policies. In the Policy Settings tab, administrators can review and apply various settings, ensuring that the policy is activated and functioning as intended. The other options serve different purposes. The **Policy Overview** tab provides a general view of all policies and their statuses but does not allow for enabling a new policy. The **Policy Bypassed** tab typically displays policies that are not being enforced, providing insight into what is being ignored but again does not facilitate the enabling of a new policy. Finally, the **Policy Summary** tab summarizes key information about the policy but does not offer controls for enabling or adjusting the policy settings. By focusing on the appropriate settings and actions required for policy management, you ensure that the new policy is effectively operational.
