v4.2.4_Endpoint Profiles Homepage on the ZeroLock® Management Console

Overview

An Endpoint Profile greatly simplifies ensuring that the desired protections are enabled/disabled, the Lockdown rule policies, the logging and cache options, and the secure shell configuration are as you intended for that specific endpoint.

Additionally, using Endpoint Profiles enables ZeroLock Management Console (ZMC) administrators to fine-tune settings for Ransomware, Cryptojacking, and Tampering protection, and settings for ensuring SSH-MFA two-factor authentication usage.  These profiles can also be configured to manage HASH rules for setting alert levels, response type, whether to send email alerts, and auto-quarantine settings.

The following walks you through the layout of the Endpoint Profiles homepage, then provides instructions on creating new views or layouts of the Endpoint Profiles page.

Endpoint Profile Screen

1. Export Data - Allows downloading all the information on your screen in CSV format. Clicking either the title or the symbol will download all the information on your screen in CSV format.
   1. If you wish to see only select files, hover the cursor to the left of the file number and select the box that appears.
   2. Once you have selected the files,  use either option to download.
2. Add New Profile - Select this to create a new endpoint profile.
3. Column Headings - The column headings are mostly self-explanatory.   IDs are system-generated. “# of Endpoints” refers to the number of Endpoints that the profile is being used by.
4. Endpoint Profiles - The names and descriptions of the endpoint profiles existing in the environment.
5. View - Provides a drop-down listing of the screen configurations, i.e., layouts or views, that are available. Initially, the only option in the VIEW drop-down list is All, representing the default and the only available layout or view.   Once other layouts are created, they will appear on the list.
6. Edit - Selecting the cog or gear symbolbrings up the Edit View pop-up screen. This screen enables changing the layout (view) of the columns, such as moving columns or hiding columns altogether. The views you create may be saved under their name for easy access from the VIEW tab.
   
   When the Edit View screen first appears, the only option is Save A Copy, which brings up the following screen.
   
   Selecting SAVE A COPY brings up the SAVE VIEW AS modal, where you may enter a name for the view. The SAVE AS button will confirm creation of the view.
   
   Moving any column will replace SAVE A COPY with MODIFIED, RESET, and SAVE AS.
   1. Modified – is static and only shows that the ‘original’ layout (view) has been changed.  The label goes away when it’s saved. 
   2. Reset – erases your changes, returning the profile to its original configuration.
   3. Save As – allows you to name and save the view you created.
      
      

For Demo View, the "# of Endpoints" column was moved below the ID column.  To save your changes to the current view, select SAVE CHANGES.

However, to save this new view under a different name click SAVE AS then enter a name for the new view in the Save View As modal. Lastly, selecting Save As will complete the naming of the new view and return you to the Edit View screen.

To save your changes to the current view, select SAVE CHANGES.

Clicking the Done button completes the process and opens the new Demo View or layout of the Endpoints Profiles page.  

This completes the introduction to the Endpoint Profiles homepage.
