Disable InPrivate Browsing for Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer 8 and 9 have a safety feature that disables IE extensions when InPrivate Browsing is enabled. Because the CA DLP Internet Explorer endpoint agent is an IE extension, CA DLP integration with IE8 or IE9 is disabled when a user enables InPrivate Browsing on the CA DLP host computer.

To prevent users from circumventing CA DLP control, we recommend that you use a Windows Group Policy to disable InPrivate Browsing on your users' workstations and laptops.

Follow these steps:

1. Launch the Local Group Policy Editor by typing "gpedit.msc" in the Run box.
2. Browse to the following category:

   Computer Configuration\Administrative Computer Configuration\
     Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\InPrivate
   

3. Enable 'Turn off InPrivate Browsing '.
