In extremely secure environments, such as financial institutions, customers often insist that you, as their device manufacturer, enable them to control and set policies on what service actions can be remotely performed on the device. Axeda Policy Server enables authorized customer administrators to establish and enforce the privacy policy for their devices.
A server-based software application residing on your customer’s network, Axeda Policy Server provides a comprehensive and granular set of permission settings that continuously governs Axeda Agent behavior for all devices at your customer location. This includes which kinds of data and files can be sent from the device as well as which activities can be conducted on the device by you.
This control applies to every kind of Axeda activity, including handling remote diagnostics, sending software upgrades, retrieving files, running Axeda Access sessions, and executing commands and scripts. As a result, your customers can explicitly authorize all remote service activity on a device as well which sensitive data can leave the device. This type of control enables you to accelerate adoption of your connected product initiative.
