Table of Contents
Web Admin Portal Overview
- The Web Admin Portal consists of 7 main areas – Dashboard, Companies, Computers, Elevation, Blocker, Users and Settings.
- Aside from the Dashboard, each page contains a data grid that is designed to allow you to find, sort, and view data quickly and easily.
- Column headers can be dragged to the top which then groups all data by that data type.
- You can group as many headers together as you would like. Change the grouping by changing the order in the header.
- You can also sort each column in ascending/descending or descending/ascending order by clicking the column header.
- Each column can be filtered by any letters, words, numbers or text by typing into the spot at the top or each column that says “filter”.
- Each column can be ordered in the grid by clicking the column header and dragging it back and forth in the list for the desired order.
- You can group as many headers together as you would like. Change the grouping by changing the order in the header.
Dashboard
The Dashboard is for viewing only currently and is divided into 3 sections - Security, Agent Deployment, and 30-Day Results. All sections display results from the past 30 days and are updated every 24 hours.
Security
- Systems with UAC Off - Systems with UAC Off represent a security risk. With the UAC in an Off-state Windows systems do not generate any UAC events or dialog boxes and therefore AutoElevate has nothing to track or intercept.
- Systems with UAC Low - This number is a combination of the previous number (Systems with UAC Off) as well as machines that have the UAC set to Level 1. With the UAC set to this level Windows systems do not generate any UAC events or dialog boxes and therefore AutoElevate nothing to track or intercept.
- Operating with Admin Privileges - Machines checking in within the last 30 days which are either actively logged in with a user operating with Admin privileges or were last logged in with an Admin user.
Agent Deployment
- Systems in Audit Mode - Systems with AutoElevate operating in Elevation Audit mode. In Audit mode system state and UAC events are logged but the user experience is not altered.
- Systems in Live Mode - Systems with AutoElevate operating in Elevation Live mode. In Live mode UAC events are intercepted, users are given the opportunity to initiate real time approval, and rules are automatically applied.
- Systems Ready to Go Live - Systems that have the UAC On and users which are operating with Standard privileges. This metric is just an informational number and not a functional prerequisite to setting Live mode.
30 Day Results
- Requests Fulfilled - Real-Time requests that were responded to by technicians within the last 30 days.
- Rules Applied - Instances in the last 30 days where an established rule elevated privileges for the end user without technician intervention.
- Rules Missed(in Audit Mode) - UAC events that took place on machines operating in Audit mode when the UAC event matched an existing rule. This indicates an instance where automatic elevation (or denial) could have taken place automatically had the agent been in Live mode.
Companies
