Centralized Scanning Profile

MetaDefender Drive administrators can now lock drives using MetaDefender Drive Toolkit (starting at v3.7.0) and require only OTP-authorized users to perform restricted actions.

On locked drives, Operators are required to obtain a 6-digit One Time Password (OTP) from a user assigned an Approver role in order to perform any of the restricted actions, such as a quick scan, custom scan or any ad-hoc field policy modification.

With this new feature, the MetaDefender Drive provisioning process includes three user roles:

  • Administrators: Responsible for provisioning the MetaDefender Drive using the Drive Toolkit.

  • Approvers: Assigned by Administrators to authorize Operators to use locked drives; they do not interact physically with drives.

  • Operators: Physically use the MetaDefender Drive to perform scanning operations.

Info

This feature isn't mandatory. If you don't enroll a device, it can be used by any field operator who has physical access to it.
