Configure OfficeScan to send you and other OfficeScan administrators a notification when it detects the transmission of digital assets, or only when the transmission is blocked.
OfficeScan comes with a set of default notification messages that inform you and other OfficeScan administrators of digital asset transmissions. You can modify the notifications and configure additional notification settings to suit your requirements.
OfficeScan can send notifications through email, pager, SNMP trap, and Windows NT Event logs. Configure settings when OfficeScan sends notifications through these channels. For details, see Administrator Notification Settings.
To configure Digital Asset Control notifications for administrators:
Notifications > Administrator Notifications > Standard Notifications
In the Criteria tab:
Go to the Digital Asset Transmissions section.
Specify whether to send notifications when transmission of digital assets is detected (the action can be blocked or passed) or only when the transmission is blocked.
In the Email tab:
Go to the Digital Asset Transmissions section.
Select Enable notification via email.
Select Send notifications to users with client tree domain permissions.
You can use Role-based Administration to grant client tree domain permissions to users. If transmission occurs on a client belonging to a specific domain, the email will be sent to the email addresses of the users with domain permissions. See the following table for examples:
Client Tree Domains and Permissions |
Client Tree Domain |
Roles with Domain Permissions |
User Account with the Role |
Email Address for the User Account |
Domain A |
Administrator (built-in) |
root |
mary@xyz.com |
Role_01 |
admin_john |
john@xyz.com |
|
admin_chris |
chris@xyz.com |
||
Domain B |
Administrator (built-in) |
root |
mary@xyz.com |
Role_02 |
admin_jane |
jane@xyz.com |
If an OfficeScan client belonging to Domain A detects a digital asset transmission, the email will be sent to mary@xyz.com, john@xyz.com, and chris@xyz.com.
If a client belonging to Domain B detects the transmission, the email will be sent to mary@xyz.com and jane@xyz.com.
If you enable this option, all users with domain permissions must have a corresponding email address. The email notification will not be sent to users without an email address. Users and email addresses are configured from Administration > User Accounts.
Select Send notifications to the following email address(es) and then type the email addresses.
Accept or modify the default subject and message. You can use token variables to represent data in the Subject and Message fields.
