Message Text

All of the text in the message can be configured in the Message Text section. You can add an additional language here and localize the text that you enter for the message text.

We recommend you change the default text strings, as they are all English placeholders. After you change the message text, click Update to see your changes applied to the preview message.

The text in any text string can include parameterized values which provide more personalized messages for users.

Languages

You can configure the text in the messages to display a language of your choice. To add a new language, click Add Languages and select the language you want to use from the dropdown list. You can set this language to be the default language by clicking Set As Default.

Endpoint Privilege Management for Windows checks the locale of the user's language and tries to match it to a language that you've set up in Endpoint Privilege Management for Windows. If it finds a match, the strings for that language are displayed for the message text. If it doesn't find a match, the language you have assigned to be the default language is used.

Endpoint Privilege Management for Windows doesn't localize the text into the language you selected. You must edit the message text in your chosen language.

If you have more than one language, you can set the default language. This is the language that will be used if an end user is using a language that is not defined. The default language is set to English, but you may change the default language:

1. Select the language you want to set as the default language.
2. Click Set As Default.

If you delete a language that has been set to the default language, the language at the top of the language list is set to the default language. You must always have at least one language defined.

Information

• Message Mode determines where the message can be assigned. Messages can be assigned to Application Rules, On-Demand Application Rules, and Content Rules. Select Automatic to allow the rule type to determine the information that is displayed (Application or Content). Select Manual to enter your own information in the custom fields. This information is displayed irrespective of the type of rule.
• Application Line One Label controls the first line. For Automatic mode, this is the Application Program Name.
• Application Line Two Label controls the second line. For Automatic mode, this is the Application Program Publisher.
• Application Line Three Label controls the third line. For Automatic mode, this is the Application Program Path.
• Content Line One Label controls the first line. For Automatic mode, this is the Control Content Name.

Publisher

• Program Publisher (Unknown) controls the text that is displayed for the variable [PG_PROG_PUBLISHER] if it's not known.
• Verification Failure controls the text that is displayed next to Publisher if the publisher verification fails.

Endpoint Privilege Management for Windows verifies the publisher by checking that there is a publisher and also checking that the certificate associated with that publisher is signed. Endpoint Privilege Management for Windows does not check to see if the certificate has been revoked due to the length of the lookup process that would rely on network connectivity. Instead, Endpoint Privilege Management for Windows relies on the certificate store to be kept up to date with revoked certificates, which would be a standard operation as the full chain should be in the local certificate store.

• Reason controls the text above the field where the end user can enter their reason.
• Reason Error Message controls the text that is displayed if the end user clicks Yes and doesn't enter a reason.

Buttons

Depending on the message options the message box has either one or two buttons:

• For a prompt, the message box has OK and Cancel buttons.
• For a blocking message with Allow user to email an application request enabled, the message box has OK and Cancel buttons. We recommend you change the OK button text to Email, unless you make it clear in the message text that the OK button sends an email request when clicked.
• For a blocking message with Allow user to email an application request disabled, the message box has only an OK button.

You can change the OK Button and Cancel Button text. For instance, you can change it to Yes and No if you are asking the end user a question.
