Properties tab

Administrator Help | TRITON AP-DATA | Version 8.3.x

Use the Properties tab to specify options for the following:

Interactive mode. Lets you select the user interface that is displayed to the endpoint client user.

Remote bypass - Select this option to allow endpoint users to disable their TRITON AP-ENDPOINT DLP security software. This action requires a bypass code from the administrator.

Content scan alerts - Select this option to alert endpoint users when their content is being scanned. Note that content scan alerts are not displayed when data is copied to removable media using a desktop-less environment, such as an ssh terminal connection.

File operation notifications - Select this option to alert the endpoint users when file operations are performed, such as encryption or copying to removable media.

Endpoint message templates. Message templates are used for messages sent to the endpoint client, such as status details and alerts. The templates are XML files, and are available in the endpoint profile in multiple languages. The default template is the currently-defined template on the endpoint server.

The templates are stored in the \custom\endpoint\msgFiles where TRITON AP-DATA is installed. You can modify them as required. You can include up to 256 characters in each message. If you include more, the message is truncated in the client user interface.

If desired, you can clone a file, rename it, and modify the messages. If you put the new file in the \msgFiles folder, the TRITON Manager displays it as one of the template options. See Customizing TRITON AP-ENDPOINT DLP client messages for more details.

Data loss prevention (DLP) policy settings. This enables you to override settings on policies designed to prevent data loss.

To define properties settings:

Select the Properties tab.

Under Interactive Mode Options, do the following:

Select Remote bypass to allow endpoint users to disable the TRITON AP-ENDPOINT DLP software installed on their machines. This action requires a bypass code from the administrator. (See Bypassing endpoint clients for additional information.)

Select Content scan alerts to alert endpoint users when content scanning is in progress. A popup caption appears on the bottom of their screens.

Note that content scan alerts are not displayed when data is copied to removable media using a desktop-less environment, such as an ssh terminal connection.

Select File operation notifications when you want popup notifications shown to the endpoint user when file operations are performed. Depending on the application, these can include cut/copy, paste, file access, printing, LAN, encryption, and copying to removable media.

If you want to change the default endpoint message template, check Set message template to under Endpoint Message Template, and select the template to use from the drop-down list.Under Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Policy Settings, check Disable blocking and encryption capabilities when policy violations are detected to disable blocking and encryption of endpoint traffic. Even if a policy is specifically set up to block or encrypt content, the endpoint client overrides this setting and allows traffic. You might want to do this if a policy is preventing a user from doing his job: you can override the block for that specific endpoint.
