After a policy has been locked, no one can turn off or disable it, or remove content from the policy. And it's not possible to modify or delete content that's subject to the policy during the retention period. The only ways that you can modify the retention policy are by adding content to it, or extending its duration. A locked policy can be increased or extended, but it can't be reduced, disabled, or turned off.

Therefore, before you lock a retention policy, it's critical that you understand your organization's compliance requirements, and that you don't lock a policy until you are certain that it's what you need.
