Auto Activation of devices
Summary
Starting with 3.0.5, licensed users with previously activated devices will now have automatic device activation.
Description
If a user had a previously activated device on Endpoint Cloud, any new device they use will automatically activate when discovered. This feature ensures users stay protected, even if the new device isn't immediately selected for activation by an administrator.
How does it work?
When a device is discovered, a few checks are performed. First, it is determined if the device is new or existing. Existing devices do not auto-activate and remain at risk.
If the device is new, it checks if it was previously activated. If it was, the device will auto-activate.
What do I need to do?
Administrators do not need to do anything; this feature will work automatically.
Requirements
- The device must be on the network to be AD verified if it is joined to a domain.
- If it is a workgroup device, an email will be received by the user to approve the device.
- The user must have an email address configured for their account.
- No more than 2 devices will be auto activated per user.
- Contact support@cibecs.com to request to enable this feature for your tenant.
