UserLock

Access security and control for Windows networks

UserLock® secures access to Windows® networks by restricting simultaneous sessions, by limiting user access to the network and by providing administrators with remote session control, alert options and advanced reporting for session analysis.

UserLock functionality

UserLock significantly reinforces Windows infrastructures security by giving network administrators the possibility to:

• implement and enforce efficient restriction and access policies for Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 networks (LAN and WAN)
• be alerted when specific events occur (accepted logins, denied logins…) by user or user group
• remotely log off or lock a user session
• monitor in real time all connectivity on the network
• automatically log activity and generate precise session reports and statistics

You will be able to:

• limit the amount of simultaneous sessions (same ID, same password) per user or per user group
• limit user access to the network per computer or computer range (department, room, floor, building…)
• enforce logon time restrictions on a group-by-group basis
• know at any time what user(s) is/are connected, on what workstation(s), since when…

How does UserLock work?

UserLock is very simple to use and doesn’t require any prior training.

Only a few minutes are necessary to get UserLock running and securing access to your network:

• Install UserLock on a Windows server (needn’t be the domain controller) and select the zone you wish to protect (all trusted domains, one domain or an organizational unit) using the setup assistant.
• Deploy the UserLock ‘agent’ (100 KB dll) to a selection of workstations from the administration console.
• Define for each user or user group the total amount of simultaneous sessions allowed.
• Define for each user or user group the workstation(s) from which they can login.
• Define logon time restrictions on a group-by-group basis
