Conditional Application Access Template

This template creates a configuration that checks if the session is accessed outside of working hours. It can be found in the TIME-BASED ACCESS category when filtered for REMOTE platform.

If the session is accessed outside of working hours, you can choose between two actions:

  • Hides applications with FSLogix App Masking within the session when accessed outside of working time.
  • Denies access to applications with Microsoft AppLocker within the session when accessed outside of working time.

deviceTRUST requires some simple but essential configuration steps to be performed to enable the template for your remoting and DaaS environments. We will guide you step-by-step through simple deviceTRUST configuration steps to enable the template within your remoting or DaaS environment.

We will perform the following steps:

  1. Step 1: Prerequisites
  2. Step 2: Contexts
  3. Step 3: Actions

Step 1: Prerequisites

If the required deviceTRUST components (Agent, Console, Client Extension and License) are not yet installed, please visit the Getting Started for Remote guide and complete step 1 to 5 and then continue here with step 2 below.

Step 2: Contexts

The template has imported the following contexts:

Context Description Customizations
Working Time
 
 
 
Defines if the current time is within the working time.
 
 
 
You must update the following context condition with data suitable for your environment:

LOCAL - SESSION TIME Time Of Day EVERYDAY BETWEEN 08:00 AND 18:00
Adjust your work hours to fit your requirements.
Note:
  • If a context is not needed, it can be deactivated or deleted. In addition, the corresponding task sequence within the relevant action must be deleted too.

Step 3: Actions

The template includes an FSLogix App Masking and a Microsoft AppLocker enforcement action that actively controls access to applications, depending on the technology available. By default both actions are disabled.
