Create a new protection rule associated with a protection policy. You can use this method to create a mailboxProtectionRule, driveProtectionRule, or siteProtectionRule.
An inclusion rule indicates that a protection policy should contain protection units that match the specified rule criteria. The initial status of a protection rule upon creation is active. After the rule is applied, the state is either completed or completedWithErrors.
