Not available for: Data At Rest; events detected by the NBA; events detected by the Client Network Agent (CNA).

Choose Inform to display an advisory dialog whenever CA DataMinder detects email, file, or application activity that is potentially significant. This option is useful if, for example, you want to remind users that their activity is being monitored, or you want to notify users when specified emails arrive in their inbox,. You can specify customized notification messages for each control trigger.

Incoming Emails and Application Monitor

When incoming emails arrive or when specified applications start up, the Inform dialog has a single OK button. If a user clicks OK, this generates a 'disregarded inform' control event.

Outgoing Emails

The Inform dialog has Continue and Cancel buttons. If the sender clicks:

• Continue, the user is allowed to send the email. This generates a 'disregarded inform' control event.
• Cancel, the user can amend the email before sending. This generates a 'heeded inform' event.

Data In Motion file events

The Inform dialog displays when a user tries to print a file or copy files to a removable drive. The dialog has a single OK button. If the user clicks OK, the user is allowed to print or copy the file.
