Policy Configuration

Policy Configuration

Simple policies are a list of filter action-value pairs that are attached to every positive selection process request. Simple policies are provided with true or false values. The default value is true.

For more information about configuring policies, see .

Policy definitions appear in the <Policies> section of FileConnector.config. Each policy is defined in a <PolicyParams> section. The name defined for the Name attribute can be referenced by “PolicyConfigurationName" from a specific channel configuration.

<Policies>
   <PolicyParams Name="Foo">
      <PredefinedPolicy PolicyName="Default Policy" />
        <PolicyRules>
          <add Name="CleanOffice" Value="true" />
          <add Name="CleanPdf" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="CleanImages" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="CleanCad" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="ExtractEmls" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockPasswordProtectedArchives" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockPasswordProtectedOffice" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockPasswordProtectedPdfs" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockAllPasswordProtected" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="Blockunsupported" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="ScanVirus" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockUnknownFiles" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="ExtractArchiveFiles" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockEquationOleObject" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockBinaryFiles" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockScriptFiles" Value="true"/>
          <add Name="BlockFakeFiles" Value="true"/>
        </PolicyRules>
   </PolicyParams>
</Policies>

By default, the configuration file contains the following named policy reference:

<PredefinedPolicy PolicyName="Default Policy"/>

A named policy, is a collection of policy rules that override the simply policy. If you specify a name for the named policy in the configuration, simple policy definitions under <PolicyRules> are ignored.

The header in each positive selection request issued by Votiro Cloud for Web Downloads specifies the policy to apply at time of processing. Use the FileConnector.config file to determine the policy to apply to each channel In folder. Apply the following rules:

<Channel Name="a" ...
PolicyConfigurationName="HR"
...
/>

Then, for the <PredefinedPolicy> element, specify the policy name as it appears in the Management Dashboard, for example, HR Policy:

<Policies> <PolicyParams Name="HR"> <PredefinedPolicy PolicyName="HR Policy" />

<PredefinedPolicy PolicyName="" />

then in the channel definition, specify a user that appears in the relevant Active Directopry group. For example:

<Channel Name="a" ...
User="Joe Smith"
...
/>

Instead of the user name, you can use the $FirstFolder and $LastFolder identifiers to indicate the usernames under the path defined for the In folder.
