There are (3) checkboxes in the POS tower management UI that allow you to configure automatic defense of the tower.  POS batteries have built-in self-checks that prevent them from firing on targets that would summon CONCORD in hi-sec.  (Are there more settings in lo-sec / null-sec?)
* Attack if other security status is dropping
 
(explanation)
====Attack if other security status is dropping====
* Attack if aggression
Your POS batteries will automatically attack anyone who's security status is dropping (global criminal flagged) while on-grid.  Such as someone shooting at your POS guns without declaring war first.  In hi-sec, this checkbox should be left off as CONCORD will deal with the offender much better then your POS batteries will.  If you have a GCC flag, you should never approach a POS (even a normally friendly one) as this setting will cause it to fire on you as a valid target.
(explanation)
 
* Attack if at war
====Attack if aggression====
(explanation)
Your POS batteries will automatically fire on anyone who engages a corp/alliance member.  This should be left offline in hi-sec as CONCORD will deal with the offenders.  Once again, if you have an aggression timer due to shooting a corpmate, you should never approach a POS (even if normally friendly) as this setting can cause it to fire upon you.
 
====Attack if at war====
This is the only setting that should be checked normally in hi-sec space.  It will ensure that your POS batteries automatically fire on valid war targets, even if you are not around to control the batteries.
