    Under Application & device control policy you can select the option for " "Log files written to USB drives."

    The logs can viewed under

    Logs can be viewed in SEP client console under View Logs menu > Client Management > Control Log...
    Logs can be viewed in SEP Manager under Monitors menu > Logs tab - Log Type: Application and Device Control, Log Content: Application Control - Select View Log


    Please mark this as a solution ito this thread if this works.:)

    One thing i want to add here

    when u configure this policy use wildcard *
    so that all process will come in logs.

    Thank you

    Thank you kavin, i think it's correct procedure to see logs files.


    @Ajitjha If user copy any data from the PC to USB, N/w, CD,DVD,Floppy, SEP will trace the location of files.


    Hope u understand!


    regards,

    i have one policy which blocks USB devices, and second policy which logs all activities written to USB devices (for those users who has right to use usb device).

    in the second policy:
     
    1."marked  "Log files written to USB drives" option
    2. assigned to those groups of users, who has right to use USB devices.

    when i wanted to see logs of those users who transferred some files on USB, i received output (see below)...


    there was said that more effective way for logging, will be use of wildcards *,:

    Question:
    Exaclty where i have to add this wildcard in policy?

    There is no way to search by rule name...I have put in the suggestion back during the original release of SEP 11...still don't see the functionality....
