The Devices section displays information about devices that the system detected in the network.

The system divides detected devices into trusted devices and untrusted devices. Each new device detected by the system in the network is considered to be an untrusted device. To make a device trusted, you need to add it to the authorized list.

When an untrusted device appears in the network, contact the employee responsible for data security in your organization.

Information about detected devices is consolidated into a table containing the following columns:

  • Name – name of the device.
  • Type – type of device.
  • Status – status of the device (Unauthorized or Authorized).
  • MAC address – MAC address of the device.
  • IP address – IP address of the device.
  • Details – operating system and vendor of the device (if identified).

If necessary, you can sort the device table based on any column by clicking the column header.

The table displays the devices detected by the system when the Devices section is opened. The device table is not updated automatically.

To update the list of detected devices:

In the Devices section, click the Update button in the upper part of the page.

By default, the Devices table displays all unauthorized devices of all detected types, and all buttons in the Type block are highlighted in blue. If the Whitelist toggle button is switched on, all authorized devices are displayed.

To filter the list of displayed devices by device type:

In the Devices section, click the button containing the name of the device type in the Type block located above the table.

Devices of the selected type will disappear from the Devices table, and the button with the device type will no longer be highlighted. If you need the table to display devices that were filtered out of the display, you need to click the button with the name of this device type again (the button will be highlighted in blue).
