Temporary Access

For those inevitable occasions when users will require access to normally-blocked devices, DeviceWall features a unique temporary access tool which works both online and offline.

Granting time-limited access
DeviceWall makes it easy to both react to, and pre-empt, special requirements to use blocked device classes by granting temporary access for named users.

For staff planning a road-trip where they know they will need access to CDs or other restricted media, administrators can plan for this in advance by pre-deploying a temporary access policy to the PC.   Even though resident on the PC, this new set of permissions will not come into force until the stated date and will automatically revert back to the normal security policy after the set time period. 

Managing offline exceptions
For urgent requirements where the user’s PC is not connected to the network, DeviceWall allows temporary access to chosen devices classes through a unique and secure verbal key exchange process.

The combination of an effective security mechanism plus the capability to handle one-time exceptions means that DeviceWall is the ideal solution for organizations looking to protect the integrity of the network with affecting business productivity.

The process of granting temporary permissions creates an audit log entry which records the person to whom one-time privileges were given, what type of device was unblocked and why. The audit log is time-stamped and maintained for subsequent review.
