Anonymizing

The Reporting Settings > Anonymizing tab allows to anonymize reporting data based on the four-eyes principle. That means that deanonymization can only take place when two different people agree on that procedure. Anonymization ensures that user data is kept secret when viewing reporting data, and therefore actions (such as web-surfing habits) cannot be traced back to a specific person.

To use anonymization, proceed as follows:

  1. On the Anonymizing tab enable anonymization.

    Click the toggle switch.

    The toggle switch turns amber and the Anonymizing Settings area becomes editable.

  2. Enter two security passwords.

    The four-eyes principle is only allowed for when two different people enter a password unknown to each other.

  3. Click Apply.

    Your settings will be saved.

    The toggle switch turns green.

To disable anonymization (globally) again, both passwords are necessary.

  1. On the Anonymizing tab click the toggle switch.

    The toggle switch turns amber and the Anonymizing Settings area becomes editable.

  2. Enter both passwords.

    Enter the first and the second password that have been provided to enable anonymization.

  3. Click Apply.

    Your settings will be saved.

    The toggle switch turns green.

Anonymization is available for the options Web Protection and Email Protectionand can be disabled for single users under Logging & Reporting > Web Protection and Logging & Reporting > Email Protection.
