        Exclusions

        By using exclusions, you can whitelist various resources that Capture Client touches—both locally and remotely. This is particularly useful if you are experiencing false positives and you want to allow the resource or content to access your device.

        To navigate to Exclusions, select Policies > Exclusions. The screen is broken down into five tabs, which allows for more granular control of resources on your device:

        • Hashes
        • Paths
        • Signer Identity
        • File Types
        • Browsers
