These points where Group Policy can be applied are called GPC, that is, Group Policy Container. This location can be a Site, Domain, or an Organizational Unit (OU). Group Policy Container (GPC) is where a policy is implemented. In order to understand this sequence, we must first explain what a Group Policy Container is. There is a certain order of implementation of the Policies. While tools such as Local Group policy, Security Configuration and Analysis are used to prepare and implement local policies, Active Directory and Domain Group Policy are used in domain policy. To make arrangements on issues such as security in the computer, some basic user rights. Although the method of application and preparation is different, the purpose of both types of policies is the same. Group Policy, which can be applied to more than one computer simultaneously in local policies and domains. In general, we can say that there are two types of policies.

But the domain group policy is always superior to the local policy. Local and domain policies can be applied to a computer at the same time.

The second type is the policy that is set from a central place (Domain Controller) in the policy domain environment and makes arrangements for multiple computers. The first of these is the policy for a single computer and located locally on the computer. In general, we can talk about the existence of two types of policies. The GPO (Group Policy Object) we have created is read by the computer and the required settings are made by processing the specified settings by the machine. We use Group Policy Editor to define and create these rules. The settings and rules we want to apply with Policy are stored in files called Group Policy Object (GPO). It can be described as managerial tools that allow automatic operations that would take a lot of time when they are done manually, such as creating working environments that users need, granting or restricting certain rights to users, installing programs that users need. Policies set policies for security needs at different levels.
