To change the policy of a Mac user, do the following:
1.
After searching for all locally logged-on users (see Identifying Mac endpoint end users), the list that displays allows you to select Change Web Policy from the Please select an action... drop-down menu.
2.
Choose the policy that you want to move the selected Mac user to.
3.
Select each of the displayed Mac users you want to move and click the Go button.
The new policy is applied to these users.
Note that two Mac usernames will be common across all of your Mac users: mac.local.root and mac.local._softwareupdate. These users receive software updates from the Internet. It is recommended that access to these users be limited to just a few categories, such as Information Technology.
