You can edit a data protection standard regardless of its synchronization (sync) status.

When editing a standard whose sync status is Draft, if you don't want to start the sync, you can simply save your changes to the draft by clicking Save Draft instead of Publish.

If you publish a standard whose sync status is Pending, Active, or Failed, the sync restarts.

    Note If you have the the Protect > Edit global permission, you can edit only the data protection standard that you created. If you have the Protect > Administration global permission, you can edit any data protection standard.
