Planning access control
Deployment and Installation Center | Data Security Solutions | Version 7.7.x
Standard network installations provide access control (preventing personnel from viewing unauthorized files) by giving each user a login and password, and authorizing each user to view only the network directories required for the user's job function. However, authorized users can still send content they are authorized to use to unauthorized recipients.
Define Product Name Variable augments access control by providing Information Distribution Management (IDM) capabilities, thereby greatly enhancing the level of information security. Websense Data Security protects digital content from being sent from your company's network to people outside of the company, as well as protecting classified information from being sent to unauthorized users within the local network.
Typically, these user privileges were defined individually, without considering grouping or security clearances for groups of people. Utilizing data security capabilities involves delineating users as belonging to groups or security levels, enabling a more sophisticated, higher level of control over classified data.
Naturally, when considering the policies discussed in this chapter, it is important to consider how these policies are impacted by or impact other content policies in your company. The TRITON - Data Security software has the flexibility to accommodate the full range of enterprise security needs.
