SearchInform Risk Monitor Protects Employees' PCs from Unauthorized Access
16.05.2025

The next-gen DLP system can now help identify attempts by malicious insiders to access colleagues' corporate PCs and immediately block unauthorized access.

The DLP system has been enhanced with new functionality for managing employees’ computers, which allows information security specialists to block user sessions on Windows-based PCs and servers. This immediate action effectively halts unauthorized access and safeguards sensitive data from insiders and other intruders.

The new feature is available in the EndpointController console. To activate protection, select the computer or server with an agent, right-click to open the context menu, and select the Lock sessions command. Risk Monitor will then immediately terminate all active user sessions on the selected PCs and servers, ensuring swift security enforcement.

The AI features of Risk Monitor will enable timely alerts for activating the new function. The neural network integrated into the DLP system detects unauthorized access to employees’ PCs and promptly informs the information security specialist, collectively strengthening security protocols and response effectiveness.

"Risk Monitor restricts the transmission of specific content – including words, phrases, files, and data by types – across most communication channels. However, some customers are interested inadditional leak prevention options to meet their unique security needs," explained SearchInform Leading Analyst Sergio Bertoni.

“In the latest update, we have introduced a user session lock feature, extending our advanced tools to counteract intruders. Combined with a neural network that can identify illegitimate users and detect screen capture using phones, this functionality enables us to quickly track and prevent complex incidents involving confidential information,” added Bertoni.
