+ Settings (6) - Settings

This shows the security settings and other settings assigned to the computer. Settings, also called ?settings profiles? or simply ?profiles?, offer administrators a simple way of establishing the security, productivity and connectivity parameters on the computers managed through Adaptive Defense 360. Administrators can create as many profiles and variations of settings as they deem necessary. The need for new settings may arise from the varied nature of computers on the network:

  • Computers used by people with different levels of IT knowledge require different levels of permissiveness with respect to the running of software, access to the Internet or to peripherals.
  • Users with different tasks to perform and therefore with different needs require settings that allow access to different resources.
  • Users that handle confidential or sensitive information require greater protection against threats and attempts to steal the organization?s intellectual property.
  • Computers in different offices require settings that allow them to connect to the Internet using a variety of communication infrastructures.
  • Critical servers require specific security settings.
