Secure Mobile Access 12.4 Administration Guide

Device Profile Attributes

A device profile can have several attributes: the platforms on which it can be used and whether multiple attributes of the same type (where allowed) are ORed or ANDed:

There are a few things to note about these attributes:

  • The attributes from which you can choose differ depending on the platform you selected for your device profile.

  • Users who have Advanced EPC can pick from a wide range of security programs.

  • Where multiple entries are allowed for an attribute, a device profile must either match all (and) or any (or) items on the device.

  • To delete an item in the list, select the check box in the left column and click Delete. To delete a single (or) item, move your pointer to the left of the item you want to delete and click the red X icon that appears.

Device Profile Attributes: ChomeOS version
ChromeOS version Platform Match

Type the major and minor versions, and the build number for the operating system.

The comparison Operator applies to all three values. To specify all versions, enter “greater than or equal to” (>=) as the Operator, and then type the major version number in the Major field and the minor version number in the Minor field. You can also specify the Build and the Patch numbers. For more information, see Using Comparison Operators with Device Profile Attributes.

Device Profile Attributes: Antimalware program (Advanced EPC only)
Antimalware program Platform Match

(This attribute is available only if you have Advanced EPC). Select the antimalware programs that EPC should check for in this profile. See Advanced EPC: Extended Lists of Security Programs for more information.

If you don’t have Advanced EPC, or if you don’t see the security programs that your users require, you can still specify programs by adding them to a device profile using another attribute, such as Application or Windows registry entry.

Few Antimalware Program that is used are: McAfee, Sophos, Bitdefender, ESET

Device Profile Attributes: client certificate
Client certificate Platform Match

Select a Certificate Authority from the drop-down menu in the CA certificate area. (See Importing CA Certificates if the CA you want to use is not listed).

A client device will match this profile as long as the appliance is configured with the root certificate for the CA that issued the client certificate to your users.

Select the certificate store(s) you want searched:

  • System store only specifies that only the system store (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemCertificates) is searched

  • System store and user store specifies that the system store is searched first, followed by the user store (HKCU\Software\Microsoft\SystemCertificates)

  • A device profile can contain only one client certificate attribute.
  • The system store cannot be searched unless the user has administration privileges on the client device.

  • Enable the option “Trust” to trust Intermediate CAs without verifying the entire chain.

Device Profile Attributes: directory name
Directory name Platform Match

Type the name of a directory that must be present on the hard disk of the device. Directory names are not case-sensitive.

When creating a device profile for jailbroken iOS devices, be sure to configure a denied EPC zone for the profile and bind this zone to at least one community.

The directory must be accessible to the user logging in. If the directory is not accessible to the user, the End Point Control evaluation will fail.

Device Profile Attributes: Equipment ID
Equipment ID Platform Match

Type the identifier for the device or use variables to define the identifier based on user attributes.

You can choose to allow access to users who do not have any registered devices on the external AD/LDAP server. Typically this would be done to allow a user access until their device identifier can be registered. Whether or not you choose to allow access, all requests for access that come from unregistered devices will be logged in the Unregistered Device Log.

Device Profile Attributes: file name
File name Platform Match

Type the name of a file (including its extension and full path) that must be present on the hard disk of the device. File names are not case-sensitive. You can use environment variables (such as %windir% or %userprofile%), or wildcard characters (* and ?).

You can optionally specify a File size or the date and time (GMT) the file was Last modified. Both of these options use a comparison Operator; for more information and examples, see Using Comparison Operators with Device Profile Attributes. The file’s modification date and time can be specified as an Absolute or Relative value.

The device profile can be configured to validate file integrity using an MD5 or SHA-1 hash (valid on all platforms), or use a Windows catalog file to validate Windows system files.

Device profiles that check for the name of the file(s) used by jailbroken or rooted devices include:

  • For jailbroken Apple iOS devices, the file name is cydia.

  • For rooted Android devices, the file names are /system/bin/su and /system/xbin/su.

If creating a device profile for jailbroken iOS devices or rooted Android devices, be sure to configure a denied EPC zone for each profile and bind each of these zones to at least one community.

The files and directories must be accessible to the user logging in. If the file is not accessible to the user, the End Point Control evaluation will fail.
