Hello all :)
Just a quick and potentially novice question. I've implemented a rule in Data Control policy to monitor all office docs being moved via removable media or sent by email. Enabled the policy on my machine, the test subject and then proceeded to process docs to trigger alerts. Just to try and get a better understanding of how the policy works and what it can do.
I did get an alert asking for confirmation when trying to attach a document to an email which is great and just what i wanted. However upon trying to save, copy or move anything to USB drive i have attached I get a warning saying the process must be done through windows explorer.
So i found and read up the instructions on policies, their actions and realised that once enabled the policy will enforce users to action doc movement insistently through windows explorer and disable in app saving to USB for example.
I can understand why this is done and am willing to work with is as a procedure. My issue comes that even if I try doing something purely through windows explorer on my Win8 machine I STILL get the error and cancellation of the copy command. Is this a bug with the OS version or am I missing a simple tick box somewhere.
Cheers
