Secure and optimize a free access

Windows® networkwith UserLock®

minutepresentation3

Academic institutions have

a very specific IT challenge

Universities, colleges,

schools, training

centers, etc. have to

secure and optimize

a network of free

access workstations

for the students /

trainees.

UserLock is a unique software solution that gives educational organizations the means to

efficiently enforce network accesssecurity as well as optimize

workstation usage.

UserLock® guarantees

genuine access

security for Windows®

networks, by

preventing possible

student pranks and by

thwarting malicious or

careless users.

Limitconcurrent logins

UserLock allows you to limit or

prevent concurrent logins, per user,

user group or Organizational Unit,

making possible to limit the students

to only one possible Windows

connection at any instance.

This is a very efficient way to prevent students

from disclosing their credentials to unauthorized

third parties.

Workstationrestriction

UserLock stops possible

account misuse by allowing

the administrator to define

per user, group and

Organizational Unit the

workstation(s) that they

can or cannot use.

Thus, a student would not be able

to login using a teacher’s

credentials from a room equipped

with free access workstations.

Remote sessionadministration

In the event of abnormal or

suspicious behavior being

detected on a workstation,

UserLock will allow the

administrator to remotely

disconnect the user or

lock the session from a

central console or any

online computer.

UserLock significantly

reduces the free access

computer occupancy

rate and allows students

to locate available

workstations using a

customizable Web

Intranet Page.

Limitconcurrent logins

UserLock compels students to

systematically close down

their session when they leave

the workstation.

Until they have done this, they

cannot open another session

elsewhere.

Timequotas

UserLock allows defining and enforcing

daily, weekly, monthly, etc. connection

time quotas per user, user group or

Organizational Unit and per session

type.

Remotedisconnection

To free up resources,

UserLock allows the

network administrator to

remotely disconnect

sessions from the central

console or from any

online computer.

Statistics forfree access computer rooms

UserLock’s reports

display precisely how

the computer rooms

are used; the high and

low activity peaks, the

occupancy rate, etc.

Locatingavailable workstations

UserLock features a

customizable Web Intranet

Page, accessible to all

network users, that

displays in real time all

unoccupied workstations

(e.g.: by building and by

room).

Delegated and remotemanagement

UserLock allows the delegation of administrative rights

to non-IT management (e.g.: teachers, supervisors, etc…),

for a subset of workstations (e.g. systems in a room, floor,

building), enabling supervision and management (e.g.:

close or unlock the session on workstations).

UserLock is in use by hundreds of

educational organizations worldwide
