Endpoint Protection Continues Even If Parent Server is Unavailable

CA DataMinder continues to protect the endpoint if it is (temporarily) disconnected from its parent gateway or CMS.

All intelligence for identifying triggers and for implementing actions is present on the endpoint, and feedback to the end user (where stipulated by policy) is immediate.

Note: The encryption utility, CADLPEnc.exe, is also installed in the CA DataMinder installation folder on the endpoint. The CFSA uses this utility to encrypt and decrypt files that your users copy to removable devices such as USB drives.

What happens with non-replicated changes?

• Captured events and policy changes awaiting replication upwards are stored on the endpoint until its parent server is available again.
• Policy changes replicating downward from the CMS are delivered as soon as the connection resumes.

Note: For more information on replication behavior, see the Machine Administration chapter in the Administration Guide. For more information on the holding cache, see the Technical Information chapter in the Platform Deployment Guide.
