About data control events
When a data control event occurs, for example, the copying of a file containing sensitive data to a USB flash drive, the event is sent to Sophos Enterprise Console and can be viewed in the Data Control - Event Viewer. The event is also logged locally on the endpoint computer and can be viewed, with the appropriate permissions, in Sophos Endpoint Security and Control.
In the Data Control - Event Viewer dialog box, you can use filters to display only the events you are interested in. You can also export the list of data control events to a file.
The number of computers with data control events over a specified threshold within the last seven days is displayed on the Dashboard.
You can also set up alerts to be sent to your chosen recipients when a data control event has occurred.
