Unable to access antispam policies

I'm trying to create an outbound spam policy. In the Security & Compliance center I go to the preset security policies under Threat Management. When I go there I see standard protection and strict protection but the settings are greyed out. I have Global Admin rights and I am in Organization Management. Is that the right place? Any idea what permission I need to access it?

Thanks

    It seems to be permission issue.

    As we know:
    • To add, modify, and delete anti-spam policies, you need to be a member of the Organization Management or Security Administrator role groups.
    • For read-only access to anti-spam policies, you need to be a member of the Global Reader or Security Reader role groups.

    You could create a new account and assign Security Administrator role group, then check if this issue persist.

    Did it work fine before? Before the issue happened, did you do any modifications, especially about role group?
