The **Cloud Workload Rules** page allows users to manage rules. Users can create, edit, filter, and manage rules.
### Note
Keep the following caveats in mind when working with Rules:
* Instance Administrators can view all facets of Rules without restrictions, even when Scope-Based Access Control (SBAC) roles are in effect.
* If you’ve been assigned a custom role with View/Edit permissions limited by SBAC, you may not be able to view specific Rules.
* You can further narrow your search in a Rules table by using SBAC to limit the scope of the findings, issues, and case counts.
The Widget section enables users to get 'at-a-glance' information based on **Platform**, **Rule type,** and **Scanner** type.
The Cloud Workload Rules page displays both the default rules and user-configured rules, with the following fields.
