Question:

How to setup Salespeople notebook for Curtain demo?

 
 
Answer:For demo purpose, you may want to install both server and client components of Curtain e-locker on one PC (or notebook). To simulate Curtain Protection for Windows File Server, you can create some share folders on the PC and apply Curtain Protection on them. Then you can demonstrate how Curtain e-locker protects share folders.

However, please remember that it is ONLY an environment for demonstration. If you want to simulate a live environment, you have to setup 2 separate machines (not 2 Virtual Machines on the same PC) for acting as server and client separately. Since this demo PC acts as both server and user's workstation, you may find that you can copy data from Protected share folders to other locations through Windows Explorer in this demo environment.

Preparation:
  • Prepare a PC with minimum system requirements
  • Check hostname of this demo PC

High-level steps for setting up demo environment on one PC:
1. Install Curtain Admin
2. Install Curtain Client
3. Activate Curtain e-locker
4. Create share folders for demo
5. Apply protection on the share folders
6. Configure control policy groups in Curtain Admin
