Replace Web Triggers with Web-Targeted Data In Motion Triggers

CA DataMinder no longer supports an Internet Explorer endpoint agent. Instead, you can use the Client Network Agent (or 'network agent') to control web activity on endpoint computers.

However, the Internet Explorer agent applied Web triggers to web activity. By comparison, the network agent applies Data In Motion triggers.

Therefore, if you previously used the Internet Explorer agent to control Internet activity, you must perform the following tasks after upgrading to the current version of CA DataMinder.

To replace Web triggers with Data In Motion triggers

Follow these steps:

1. Deploy the network agent on your endpoint computers.

   Deployment instructions are in the 'Client Network Agent' chapter of the Endpoint Integration Guide.

2. Set up equivalent Data In Motion triggers to replace your old Web triggers.

   For example, if you previously used a 'Submitted Text' Web trigger to detect unauthorized data submissions, you can set up a Data In Motion trigger to detect the same data submissions. Remember to set the Which Files Sources? setting to Client Network Agent for File'.

   For details about setting up triggers for the network agent, see the 'Stopping Data Leaks to the Cloud' chapter in the Policy Guide.
