 # Manage network access
-NetBird allows administrators to restrict access to resources (peers) by creating access rules and
-defining what peer groups are permitted to establish connections with one another. Rule can allow connections
-by specific protocol and ports.
+NetBird enables administrators to oversee and manage access between resources (peers) through access policies. These policies specify which peers and peer groups are permitted to connect to each other, detail the protocols and ports for these connections, and offer the option to include posture checks to apply zero trust principles, helping to adapt access control to specific contexts.
 
 ## Introduction
-A NetBird account comes with a `Default` rule that allows all peers of the account to connect to each other by all protocols,
-forming a full mesh network. In most cases, this is the desired state for a small network or network that has low-security requirements.
-When you need to restrict access to certain resources that belong to specific users or services within your organization,
-you can create rules that dictate who can access what.
+Intitially, a NetBird account is configured with a `Default` policy which allows peers to connect via any protocol, resulting in the formation of a full mesh network. This setup often suits small networks or those requiring minimal security. In scenarios where higher security is needed or access to specific resources must be restricted for certain users or services, policies can be set up to determine access permissions.
 
-Access control rules make use of groups to control connections between peers; these groups can be added as `Source` or `Destination` of a rule and will be evaluated when the Management service distributes the list of peers across your network.

+Access control policies make use of groups to control connections between peers. These groups, which are sets of peers (meaning different machines with the NetBird client installed), can be added as Source or Destination of a policy. They are evaluated when the Management service distributes the list of peers across your network.
 
 ## Concepts
 ### Groups
-A NetBird group works and follows a similar concept to tags in other platforms; they are easily created and can be associated with peers and used in rules to control traffic within your network.

-Some characteristics of groups:
-- They are unique.
-- One group can have multiple peers.
-- Peers can belong to multiple groups.
-- Rules can have multiple groups in their `Source` and `Destination` lists.
-- They are created in the `Access Control` or `Peers` tabs.
-- They can only be deleted via API.
-- There is a default group called `All`.
+Here are some key attributes of groups:
+- Each group is unique.
+- A single group can have multiple peers.
+- Peers can be part of multiple groups simultaneously.
+- Groups can be included in the 'Source' and 'Destination' lists of policies.
+- Groups are generated within the 'Access Control' or 'Peers' tabs.
+- Groups can be deleted only via the API.
+- There exists a default group called 'All'.
 
 <Note>
     You can assign groups automatically with the [peer auto-grouping feature](/how-to/register-machines-using-setup-keys#peer-auto-grouping).
 </Note>
 
 ### The All Group
-The `All` group is a default group to which every peer in your network is automatically added to. This group cannot be modified or deleted.
+The 'All' group serves as a default group that automatically includes every peer in your network. This group cannot be modified or removed.
 
-### Rules
-Rules are defined as sets of Source and Destination peer groups, which specify the allowable communication between them.
-Depending on the rule configuration, this communication can be either bidirectional or unidirectional.
-Rules are processed when the Management service distributes a network map to all peers of your account. Because you can only create ALLOW rules, there is no processing
-order or priority, so the decision to distribute peer information is based on its association with a group belonging to an existing rule.
+### Policies
+Policies act as rules governing how different resources (peers) can communicate and connect. They specify the source and destination of communication and can allow bidirectional or unidirectional connections.
 
-Currently, the communication between lists of groups in source and destination lists of a rule for ALL and ICMP protocols,
-and for TCP and UDP when you don't define limitation by port, it is bidirectional, meaning that destinations can also
-initiate connections to a group of peers listed in the source field of the rule.
+Policies are processed when the Management service shares a network map with all peers of your account. Because you can only create ALLOW policies, there is no processing order or priority. So, the decision to distribute peer information is based on its association with a group belonging to an existing policy.
 
-The behavior of a network without any rules is to deny traffic. No peers will be able to communicate with each other.
+Currently, communication between lists of groups in the source and destination fields of a policy is bidirectional for ALL and ICMP protocols. Additionally, for TCP and UDP protocols without port limitations defined, it is bidirectional, meaning that destinations can also initiate connections to a group of peers listed in the source field of the policy.
 
 <Note>
-    If you need to allow peers from the same group to communicate with each other, just add the same group to the `Source` and `Destination` lists.
+If you need to allow peers from the same group to communicate with each other, you can do so by adding the same group to the `Source` and `Destination` lists.
 </Note>
 
-### The Default Rule
-The `Default` rule is created when you first create your account. This rule is very permissive because it allows communication between all peers in your network.
-It uses the [`All`](#the-all-group) group as a source and destination. If you want to have better
-control over your network, it is recommended that you delete this rule and create more restricted rules with custom groups.
+Without policies, a network operates by denying traffic, meaning peers cannot communicate with each other. That's why the default policy is automatically created upon account creation.

+### The Default policy
+The `Default` policy is created when you first create your account. This policy is very permissive because it allows communication between all peers in your network, utilizing the [`All`](#the-all-group) group as both the source and destination. It's worth noting that the [`All`](#the-all-group) group is also automatically present when the account is being created. If you want to have better control over your network, it is recommended that you delete this policy and create more restricted policies with custom groups.
 
 <Note>
-    If you need to restrict communication within your network, you can create new rules and use different groups, and then remove the default rule to achieve the desired behavior.

 ### Multiple Mesh Networks
-As mentioned above, rules by default are bidirectional which is basically the control of how your network will behave as a mesh network.
-But for TCP and UDP protocols, if you define ports in the rule, rule can be unidirectional.
+As mentioned above, policies are bidirectional by default, essentially controlling how your network behaves as a mesh network. However, for TCP and UDP protocols, if you specify ports in the policy, it can become unidirectional.
 
-There is a `Default` rule, which configures a Default mesh connection between all peers of your network. With rules,
-you can define smaller mesh networks by grouping peers and adding these groups to `Source` and `Destination` lists.
-Also you can create unidierectional rules to restrict traffic between groups for TCP and UDP protocols if you define ports.
