Languages / Standard messages

Right-click Languages / Standard messages, then New and first select the language on the General tab. The list contains all currently available Windows languages. Optionally, you can also add a description.

Notifications can be defined for the following areas:

Select the Drive control tab and enter the default messages that DriveLock should use when locking drives.

  • The variable %DRV% is replaced by the drive letter when the message is displayed.

  • Click Test to verify that the message is displayed correctly. DriveLock briefly displays the message as a user will see it.

Select the Drive access tab to configure messages for accessing files or locking CD/DVD recorders, for example.

  • The following variables are available and will be replaced accordingly:

  • %DRV% is replaced by the drive letter.
  • %PATH% is replaced by the file path.
  • %NAME% is replaced by the file name.
  • %EXT% is replaced by the file extension.
  • %REASON% is replaced by the reason why a file was blocked.

Select the Devices tab to set the default messages for devices. The variable %DEV% is replaced by the current device name when displayed.

On the Applications tab, you can define the messages for Application Control.

  • The variable %EXE% is replaced by the current application when it is displayed.

  • The variable %PARENT% is replaced for the program start.

On the Temporary unlock tab, the messages for temporarily unlocking drives or devices can be configured by an administrator.

  • The variable %TIME% is replaced by the time of release when displayed.

  • You can configure different messages depending on the time in minutes or a time period used for the release.

  • You should configure an information text that will be displayed on the first page of the Share Wizard.

You define the texts for usage policies on the Usage policies tab.

  • Usage policies are used to inform the user of security-related behavioral measures or corporate policies before actually accessing a drive or device. Only after the user has read and comprehensibly accepted a hint message (usage policy), the drive or device is released.

  • Both a heading, the texts for the two buttons, and the text itself can be freely defined via this configuration item.

  • Either type the message text directly into the input field, or select an RTF-formatted file from the local disk or policy store. A file from the policy store is marked with an "*".

    When you select a file, you must make sure that it is located in the specified path on the local hard disk of the client computer and can be loaded from there. You can use the policy store to distribute this file along with the DriveLock configuration. For more information on policy storage, see File storage.

  • An AVI video can also be played within the usage guideline, which can also be configured via this dialog.

On the Agent tab you can configure the message for remote control access.

  • You can configure an information text that is displayed to the logged-in user as soon as an administrator establishes a remote control connection.

  • The variable %USER% will be replaced with the user name of the administrator who started the remote control access when it is displayed.

On the Awareness tab, you define the default texts for the display window of the security awareness campaigns

On the Encryption tab, specify a contact (e.g. the Administrator or HelpDesk) that the end user can contact to perform the recovery process.
