Description
Policies can have "/" in their names, causing the APIs to fail (thinks it is part of the paths). mxapi currently doesn't return the policies with "/" in their name to avoid these errors. Need to see if this is fixed in the API in the future.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the API failures with policy names containing "/" and inspect how mxapi lists and addresses those policies. Confirm whether the upstream SecureSphere Open API now supports such names; done means the SDK can return and operate on them without treating the slash as a path separator, or the external API limitation is documented.
