Pre-installed network policy

When you enable a Materialize region, a default network policy named default will be pre-installed. This policy has a wide open ingress rule allow 0.0.0.0/0. You can modify or drop this network policy at any time.

{{< note >}} The default value for the network_policy session parameter is default. Before dropping the default network policy, a superuser (i.e. Organization Admin) must run ALTER SYSTEM SET network_policy to change the default value. {{< /note >}}
