Adding Remediation Actions

Field                                             Description

Name

A name for remediation that should be somewhat descriptive

Comment

A full description of all remediation steps that take place

Report Discovery Events

Report to the Smartcrypt Enterprise Manager when a discovery event is triggered

MIP

If this box is checked, Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) can be used as a remediation option. An application configuration from the MIP/Applications page must be selected for the local PKWARE agents to communicate to the local Unified Labeling clients for labeling with MIP. 

Reporting: Check or uncheck options for successful or unsuccessful labeling operations that are reported to the PKWARE Enterprise Manager

Label: A label that will be applied for the remediation must be selected from the "Label" dropdown. Labels in this dropdown are populated from the MIP/Labels page. 

Justification: Text that can be supplied to the local Unified Labeling Client when an MIP label is applied to the file. 

Remove Label: Removes the MIP label from the file as a remediation. 

Encrypt

If this box is checked, Encrypt for remediation encrypts a file. When Encrypt is checked, options for Keys, Compress, Report Successful Encryptions, Report Encryption Failure, and Post Encryption will appear.

Report Successful Encryptions

If this box is checked, any triggered successful encryption events will be reported to the Smartcrypt Enterprise Manager

Report Encryption Failures

If this box is checked, any triggered encryption failure events will be reported to the Smartcrypt Enterprise Manager

Key(s)

Select Smartkey(s) from the drop-down menu to encrypt the file associated with the remediation. Community keys, shared Smartkeys, and private keys. Leaving the text entry for Key(s) blank will automatically select private keys.


ClassifyIf this is checked, Classification (SISL) will appear as a remediation for pre- and post-encryption.
Report Successful Classifications

If this box is checked, any triggered successful classification events will be reported to the Smartcrypt Enterprise Manager

Report Classification Failures

If this box is checked, any triggered classification failure events will be reported to the Smartcrypt Enterprise Manager

Compress

Check this box to allow users within scope to compress on files. If a file is triggered, the file will be compressed before encryption.

Uncheck this box to not allow users within scope to compress files. If a file is triggered, the file will not be compressed before encryption. This could lead to faster encryption times for end users.
Redact

If this box is checked, Redaction for remediation Redacts file content.

  • Supported file extensions: ZIP, MSG, PDF, PPTX, TXT, XML, XLS, XLSX, ACCD, DOC, DOCX, PPT, MDB, RTF, CSV, VSDX, VSD, OOXM
  • Note: Certain file types, notably Visio diagrams, cannot be redacted unless the appropriate editing software is installed on the same device as the redaction agent.

Pre Encryption - Classification (SISL)Input the classification SISL here to place it on a file before it is encrypted. The SISL can be found from Power Classifier for Files.

Pre Encryption - Command

Pre-processing command to run on the targeted file(s).

Smartcrypt will substitute any instances of `%FULLPATH%`,  `%DIRECTORY%`, `%FILENAME%`, and '%BASEDIR%'   in single-line commands with the respective details of the file being processed when processing Pre- and Post- commands.

These four variables are passed as parameters In multi-line commands, in the order listed above

Pre Encryption – Ignore Filesystem Events

If this box is checked, changes to the file from the Pre-Encryption Command will be ignored by the discovery engine.

Post Encryption - Classification (SISL)Input the classification SISL here to place it on the encrypted zip. The SISL can be found from Power Classifier for Files.

Post Encryption - Command

Post-processing command to run on the targeted encrypted file.
