What it does
Where SecurityInsight looks to decide which department is responsible for an asset: the platform tags (tags) and the department rules defined on the web app (rules), in the order listed.
When set
Changes which department owns which assets and findings. Every retained collection is re-resolved on the next data sync, so the department pages, trends and monthly reports follow the new order. Overrides set on the web app always win; an asset nothing places goes to the default department, else Unassigned. Leave a source out to switch it off.
When blank or default
Left blank, the default applies: tags, then rules
Risk and how to reverse it
Changes how long data is kept or how quickly assets are treated as gone. Shortening a retention DELETES older data at the next clean-up and that cannot be undone; shortening a grace period retires assets (and closes their findings) sooner. Lengthening is safe but uses more storage.
Requires
A SecurityInsight Pro licence.
Recommended
Keep the default. Change it when: When your rules are more reliable than your tags (put rules first), or when one of the two is not used at all.
