Vulnerabilities

The Vulnerabilities tab is home to several possible security holes or gaps in your environment:

·         System Tray Menu: When System Tray Menu is enabled at a device, the user can access admin controls through the system tray menu to turn off protection, enable override modes, and more.

·         Prompt for Override: With prompt for override enabled, the user can choose to allow or always allow an application that PC Matic is going to block.

·         Remote Desktop Protocol: Remote Desktop Protocol can open opportunities for brute force attackers to gain control of an endpoint. This report shows all devices with RDP enabled, what port it is enabled on and a toggle to turn it off. You can read more about RDP security here.

·         Account Lockout Settings: PC Matic Pro automatically sets the Windows Account Lockout Threshold to stop brute force attacks. Our default settings/recommendations are 10 incorrect attempts (Threshold) within 5 minutes (Duration) to lock the account for 5 minutes (Observation). You can read more about this setting here.
