About Endpoint Management
Overview
Accops HySecure has increased productivity for today's enterprise by enabling more users to gain wider access by virtually connecting to private networks. But while broader access clearly enhances productivity, it also inherently widens network exposure to uncontrolled environments. For Example: If a remote client machine is infected with virus/worms/Trojans/spy-wares, this un-wanted traffic is also sent to private network over secured connection. To effectively control these risks, it is no longer enough to manage access by user identity alone. The safety of the user's end point environment must also be ensured.
Host Scan policies enable scanning the endpoints for specified endpoint information or any 3rd party product like AV, related details. Following type of Host Scan Policies can be created
- Antivirus based
- Firewall based
- Antispyware based
- MAC Address based
- IP Address based
- Geolocation
- Domain
- Windows Update
- Wan IP Address
These policies can be then linked with the security profiles described in later section (Device Profile Management).
Endpoint Security can only be enabled once you have created a device profile.
Important
Endpoint Security is a licensable option on top of Accops HySecure User License. You have to purchase a valid Endpoint License in order to enable this feature within Accops HySecure. Endpoint Security is disabled for Security officers and Administrator logons.
