A system policy comparison report is a record of all differences between two system policies or two 
revisions of the same system policy identified by the system policy comparison view, presented in PDF 
format. You can use this report to further examine the differences between two system policy 
configurations and to save and disseminate your findings.

You can generate a system policy comparison report from the comparison view for any system policies 
to which you have access. Changes you make to a system policy do not appear in the system policy 
comparison report until you save the changes. 

Depending on your configuration, a system policy comparison report can contain one or more sections. 
The following sample graphic displays the Policy Information, User Detection Settings, and Time 
Synchronization sections of a system policy comparison report, and lists the configuration for each rule 
for both system policy configurations. Each section uses the same format and provides the same level of 
detail. Note that the Value A and Value B columns represent the policies or policy revisions you 
configured in the comparison view.

You use a similar procedure to compare other types of policies on the FireSIGHT System. For more
