3.6 Overriding a Password
Productivity interruptions that a user might experience because of restrictions to connectivity,
software, or thumb drives are probably caused by the security policy the Endpoint Security Client
4.0 is enforcing. Changing locations or firewall settings usually lifts these restrictions and restores
the interrupted functionality. However, in some cases the restriction could be implemented in such a
way that it affects all locations and firewall settings. When this is the case, the restrictions must be
temporarily lifted to allow productivity.
The Endpoint Security Client 4.0 is equipped with a Password Override feature that temporarily
disables the current security policy to permit the necessary activity. The Security Administrator
distributes a single-use password key only when needed, and should be informed of any problems
with a security policy. After the password key’s time limit has expired (set by the administrator), the
security policy protecting the endpoint is restored. Rebooting the endpoint also restores the security
settings.
To activate the password override:
1 Contact your company's ESM Administrator to get the password key
