Overview

Action sets allow you to create a group of actions to add to a content scan or apply to individual files. DryvIQ works through the actions in the action set, automating activities to minimize the need for manual intervention. For content scans set to run on recurring schedules, action sets ensure continuous action against your unstructured content so you can remain confident it follows your business and security guidelines.  

You can select to take definitive action against a file as soon as the scan identifies it, or you can combine multiple actions to force the file through a remediation approval workflow. For example, you can create an action set that executes when DryvIQ finds files that contain social security numbers. The action set could include the following actions:

1. Remove permissions from the file.
2. Flag the file for manual approval (review).
3. Set a delay that waits 48 hours for the review to take place.
4. Delete the file.
