Anonymous investigative reports

To hide user names in investigative reports, click Anonymous at the top of the Web > Main > Reporting > Investigative Reports page in the Security Manager.

By default, this hides only user names, continuing to show source IP addresses in reports. To also hide source IP addresses:

Steps

  1. On the management server machine, open the wse.ini file in a text editor. (By default, this file is located in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Websense\Web Security\ webroot\Explorer directory.)
  2. Add the following line under the [explorer] heading:
    encryptIP=1
  3. Save and close the file.

Next steps

Now, any time you click Anonymous, all user-identifying information is hidden.

When you click Anonymous, and then move to a different view of the data, such as detail view or outliers, user names remain hidden in the new report. However, to return to the summary view with the names hidden, you must use the links at the top of the report, not the breadcrumbs in the banner.
