About NAC 800 Tests

You can enter any combination of these keys in the NAC 800 text entry fields
to detect a vendor, software package and version on an endpoint (for example,
you can also enter
Mozilla\Firefox
or simply
Mozilla
) and NAC 800
searches for them in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software
registry key
sub-tree.
TIP:
The entries are not case sensitive. This test simply checks to see if the registry
key exists in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software. So, these values must match the registry
keys as displayed in the registry editor. If you just specify Mozilla (or mozilla)
and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Mozilla exists in the registry, the test
would match.
To find the software registry keys on the endpoint:
1. Select Start>>Run
2. Type:
regedit
3. Click
OK
.
4. Expand the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
key.
5. Expand the SOFTWARE key.
6. View the sub-trees for various vendors software and versions.
TIP:
If you’re looking for a registry key, you enter a trailing slash. If you’re looking
for a registry value, you do not enter a trailing slash.
Entering Service Names Required/Not Allowed
Services are Windows operating system applications that run automatically,
without manual intervention.
To find the services names on the endpoint:
Service names must be entered exactly as they appear in Control panel>>Admin-
istrative tools>>Services application .
TIP:
Enter the names of software and services in the NAC 800 text entry field
separated by a carriage return.
For example, the following are examples of services:
