As an IT Admin, some policies that you create provide settings for you to specify, enable, or disable certain features. For example, when you create a policy for Mac computers to control when the screen saver locks down an inactive device, you need to configure the timeout in seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some policies take effect immediately, while others might take 5-10 minutes for the policy update process to run, or require a device logout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is a list of all macOS policies in JumpCloud. If a policy has additional settings that you need to configure, the Learn More column contains a link to the instructions. If an article isn’t listed in the Learn More column, use the basic steps in Create a Policy<\/a> for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
