Understanding SecureCopy

NOTE: See the SecureCopy(TM). Empower users to copy then elevate items for a video overview demonstration.

Endpoint Policy Manager Least Privilege Manager SecureCopy feature lets you create your own store for users to take applications and installers which need elevation, and empower users to copy them to a location of your (or their) choice, and perform the installation or running of the application.

Step 1 – Start out by creating a SecureCopy™ policy.
