Custom user directory groups
Use this screen to define or manage custom groups that can be sources or destinations of information in your organization. For example, a business unit could comprise all Marketing personnel in the domain codivision.com.
Unlike Custom user directory groups, business units can contain any TRITON AP-DATA resource. These can include user directory entries such as users and groups. They can also include non-user directory resources such as URL categories, geographical locations, custom users, custom computers, networks, domains, and printers.
When you create a business unit, you add resources to it. You can then assign it to a policy so that only these resources are permitted to send or receive data of a particular type.
If a business unit includes computers and users but a policy applies only to users, the system applies the policy only to users in the business unit.
To define a business unit:

TRITON AP-DATA includes a predefined business unit called Excluded Resources. By default, it includes a list of SaaS domains, such as salesforce.com, that are typically excluded from Web policies and rules. You can add domains and other resources to the business unit or remove them by clicking the business unit name and editing it.
This business unit is automatically added to the destination exclude list for every new Web policy or rule. (In other words, new Web DLP policies and rules are not applied to the resources in this business unit.)
When you create a policy or rule, you can exclude all resources in the business unit, or add or remove resources from the exclude list as needed.
