Stage 1 – User requests temporary access: At this stage the user executes the GFI EndPointSecurity Temporary Access tool from the computer on which the portable media device is to be accessed. The tool is used to generate a request code, which the user communicates with the administrator. The user also needs to inform the administrator on the device type to be accessed, and for how long will device access be required.
Stage 2 – Administrator grants temporary access: At this stage the administrator uses the GFI EndPointSecurity Temporary Access feature to enter the request code, specify devices/ports and time restrictions. An unlock code is generated which the administrator then communicates with the user.
