Managing Data Protection and Using Digital Asset Control
Transmission Scope and Targets for Network Channels
Transmission scope and targets define data transmissions on network channels that
OfficeScan must monitor. For transmissions that should be monitored, OfficeScan
checks for the presence of digital assets before allowing or blocking the transmission.
For transmissions that should not be monitored, OfficeScan will not check for the
presence of digital assets and immediately allow the transmission.
Transmission Scope: All Transmissions
OfficeScan monitors data transmitted outside the host computer.
Tip: Trend Micro recommends choosing this scope for external clients.
If you do not want to monitor data transmissions to certain targets outside the host
computer, define the following:
• Non-monitored targets: OfficeScan does not monitor data transmitted to these
targets.
Note: Data transmissions to non-monitored targets and to monitored targets where "Pass" is
the action are similar in that the transmission is allowed. The only difference is that
for non-monitored targets, OfficeScan does not log the transmission, whereas for
monitored targets, the transmission is always logged.
• Monitored targets: These are specific targets within the non-monitored targets
that should be monitored. Monitored targets are:
• Optional if you defined non-monitored targets.
• Not configurable if you did not define non-monitored targets.
