Set default policies

You can set default policies that Veracode automatically assigns to newly created applications. These default policies can be either built-in or custom.

Before you begin:

You must have the Policy Administrator role to set default policies.

Application default policy

Veracode assigns a default policy to an application profile based on the business criticality selected for the application. This setting ensures consistent policy enforcement across all application profiles.

To complete this task:

1. Select Policies > Policy Settings.
2. For each business criticality, select the policy to be assigned to an application by default.
3. Select Save.

Next steps:

You can subscribe to or unsubscribe from Veracode Platform notification emails related to events that impact your policies on the Notification Settings page.

Workspace default policy

If your organization has activated the Unified Policy feature, which replaces agent rules, you can assign a default policy to SCA agent workspaces. This setting ensures consistent policy enforcement across all workspaces.

To complete this task:

1. Select Policies > Policy Settings.
2. Select the default policy to assign to a workspace.
3. To assign all existing workspaces to the selected policy, select Update Existing Workspaces on Save.
4. Select Save.
