Fingerprinting Tasks
Samples of information assets that require protection (documents, files, etc.) are processed, and their fingerprints are created and stored, by tasks on the server. Each task attributes to a certain classification, and assigns it to the fingerprints that it creates. For instance, fingerprints created by a task of “Confidential” classification are attributed to that same “Confidential” classification.
The classifications are listed in the console tree under DeviceLock Enterprise Server > Digital Fingerprints > Fingerprinting Tasks. To view the tasks of a certain classification, select that classification in the console tree, under Fingerprinting Tasks.
The shortcut menu on the Fingerprinting Tasks node provides the following command:
•Edit Classifications - Use this command to create, rename, or delete custom classifications. You can also raise or lower the level of a custom classification. See
Managing Classifications for details.
When Fingerprinting Tasks is selected in the console tree, the details pane lists the names of the classifications that are currently available on the server. The shortcut menu on each classification provides the following commands:
•Create Task - Create and configure a new task for the selected classification (see
Creating Tasks).
•Refresh - Update the list in the details pane with the latest information.
These commands are also available on each classification under
Fingerprinting Tasks in the console tree (see
Managing Existing Tasks).
