Creating a new policy
When you import your legacy policies, they appear in the authoring 
environment as rulesets. If the -p switch was used, your imported legacy policies 
appear in the authoring environment as policy files.
The next procedure is to create a new policy and add one of the legacy rulesets 
that you imported. Symantec recommends that you follow a one ruleset per 
policy association to reduce complexity.
To create a new policy
1
On the Library tab, click File > New.

In the New dialog, click Detection Policy, and then click Open.
