Manage data leakage and system infection

Endpoint Device Reporter

The AccessPatrol reporting utility addresses an organization’s security compliance of mobile and storage devices. It serves as an effective tool for analyzing removable device usage and policy enforcement. Effectively identify employees that frequently abuse the endpoint device policies. Through the intuitive reporting tool, generate comprehensive reports highlighting device usage by computer or by user.

The AccessPatrol reports are clear and easy to understand, ranging from executive level summaries to drill down detailed reports for administrators. The reports include:

  • All Devices Accessed
  • Allowed Devices
  • Blocked Devices
  • Allowed vs. Denied Access
4

Email Reports Automatically

Endpoint Device Reports can be automatically generated and emailed to the administrator or a distribution list on a scheduled basis.

5

Offsite Device Management

By default, the endpoint security of systems that are offline or offsite will still be managed by the AccessPatrol policies. Offsite laptops/computers that need to have access to blocked devices can be configured easily to allow access to these devices.

6

Allowed List

Total blockage of all endpoint devices may be the choice of security, however, there may be times when specific users may need access to some devices. For example the IT team would need CD/DVD access to install software, the marketing department may need USB flash access to store presentations etc.

Through the Allowed List feature, permission policies of authorized devices can be assigned to specific users. Depending on the device type, permissions of read, write or no access can be assigned to the users. This minimizes leakage of sensitive data or infection of systems through unapproved or personal employee devices.

Devices that are added to the Allowed List can allow users access to only company authorized devices. Users would have read/write privileges to those devices listed under the Allowed List.

7

Scheduler

Users can be assigned access to devices at specific times. Through the Scheduler feature, access privileges can be allocated for all or specific devices.

8

Remote Client Install

AccessPatrol clients can be pushed out remotely from the Console, thereby eliminating the need to visit individual clients.
