Overview

You can use segregated configurations for specific workstation scenarios. This feature is available at:

  • Control of directories and files
  • Scan of directories and files
  • Segregated parameters
  • access lists
  • Commands

For segregation by users, this feature is available at:

  • Segregated parameters

Configure segregated settings

The workstation may belong to a user who requires special attention or differentiated use.

To configure a segregated parameter, follow these steps:

  1. Access the Segura platform.
  2. Enter the EPM ➞ Settings ➞ Segregated parameters.
  3. Go to the icon, and select New segregation for workstations.
  4. On the General tab, set the desired parameters for the workstation.
  5. On the Workstations tab, define the workstations to which the rules will be applied.
  6. Click Save.

Segregation for Users

Segregation allows users of the EPM module to access their machines when using more than one workstation. In cases where the user needs access to several different workstations, you can create a single policy for the user instead of a policy for each machine. Segregation for the user also applies if a list for the user and the workstation overlapping. The rule will be applied and respect the order of priority first allowlist, denylist, and parameters.

Info

Users using more than one workstation appeared twice in the same report. In the segregation list, the user appears only once.

Configure segregation by users

To configure a segregated parameter, follow these steps:

  1. Access the Segura platform.
  2. Access menu EPM➞Settings➞Segregated Parameters.

Parameter combinations

Segregated parameters take precedence over global parameters. Thus, four situations are possible:

Attention

The system default considers the settings defined in the global parameter.

Combinations Global Parameter Segregated Parameter Final status
Situation 1 Inactive Active Segregated parameter = active
Situation 2 Active Inactive Segregated parameter = inactive
Situation 3 Active System default Global parameter = active
Situation 4 Active Active Segregated parameter = active
Situation 5 Inactive Inactive Segregated parameter = inactive
Situation 6 Inactive System default
