Other New Features

The following new features have also been added to CA DataMinder since 14.1.

New Security Model: Policy (All Events, Restricted Triggers)

This variant of the Policy model allows reviewers to see any events in the CMS database when they run a search. That is, no events are excluded from the search results.

However, the reviewer can only see trigger and audit details for events covered by their policy role. Specifically, the Search Results screen only shows trigger and audit details for events associated with policy classes in the reviewer's policy role. If the search results include events associated with other policy classes, trigger and audit details for these events are hidden in the Search Results screen.

Client File Server Agent can protect files on SD cards

The CFSA can now apply policy to files being copied to SD cards.

Protection for SD cards works in exactly the same way as CFSA protection for USB removable devices. In both cases, the CFSA applies Data In Motion triggers to files being copied. The available control actions (for example, blocking or encryption) are also the same.

Windows Server 2012

CMSs and gateway servers now support Microsoft Windows Server 2012.

A full list of supported operating systems is in the Requirements chapter of the Platform Deployment Guide.

Windows 8

Endpoint agents now support Microsoft Windows 8.

A full list of supported operating systems is in the Requirements chapter in the Endpoint Integration Guide.

Exchange Server 2013

CA DataMinder can now analyze and apply policy to emails passing through Microsoft Exchange Server 2013.

But see also the support limitations.

Outlook 2013

CA DataMinder can now analyze and apply policy to incoming and outgoing emails in Microsoft Outlook 2013.

Office 2013

CA DataMinder can now analyze and apply policy to files created using Microsoft Office 2013 applications.

SharePoint 2013

The CA DataMinder File Scanning Agent can now scan files and documents stored on SharePoint 2013 sites.

CA Business Intelligence 3.3

CA DataMinder now integrates with BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP5. In fact, CA DataMinder integration with BusinessObjects Enterprise now requires BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP5! Specifically, SP4 is no longer supported.

Compatibility with CA products is provided through CA Business Intelligence. CA Business Intelligence is a wrapper that includes a BusinessObjects Enterprise installation. The current CA DataMinder release supports CA Business Intelligence 3.3. When you install CA Business Intelligence 3.3 on your reports server, BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP5 and its InfoView web portal also get installed.

User Policies Export

You can now export user policies to a human-readable spreadsheet by running a wgninfra.exe command, or from the File, Export Policy Blueprint menu in the User Policy Editor.

Support for regional archives

CA DataMinder supports multiple unconnected email archive instances on a single Central Management Server. If your enterprise has separate installations of the same email archive in multiple geographic regions, it is now possible to segregate the events from these onto a single CMS so that the Remote Data Manager can retrieve historic emails from the correct archive installation. See CA DataMinder Archive Integration Guide, Third-Party Integration for more details.
