Hi guys,

I have set up a policy that logs the files written to the USB drives. Is it possible to have in the future versions a field that contains the detailed write event that occured for that policy(ex: File copy, File delete...)

Regards,
Raul

We currently use a program

We currently use a program from Checkpoint called Removable Media Manager. This provides a detailed link of file actions performed on removable media.

However , this software can also block any devices attached to your machine ( which it does at random ) If this was incorporated into SEP then we wouldn't need this software and could stop paying support for it.

We would also love Symantec very much :+)

Very Good

This is a good idea. This will avoid in purchasing another product such as DLP.

This would be helpful

This would be very helpful. I was just inquiring about this very thing to Symantec and was told to submit an idea.
It would be helpful for tracking to know the details of the logs.
If it was deleted, modified, copied etc.
It would also be helpful to know what some of the logged users are. EX: log write to usb (user:SYSTEM, 0, 1, pdf,etc.   E:\text.txt.
Sometimes you get some users that supposedly write to a usb but not sure who the user is when it is 0,1, pft. jpg etc.
Lets hope they give us this detailed log files.
