Websites

At Security > Applications > Websites, you can enable user specific website filtering based on rules. if Website Security is enabled, it automatically secures the following browsers: Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera.

There are two methods for using Website Security:

  • Allow means specific URLs are allowed and all others are denied.

  • Deny means that specific URLs are denied and all others are allowed.

For fine-tuning purposes, exceptions to the set rules can be made.

In case Administrative Roles are used (at Administration > Administrative Roles), making changes to the setting Security method is only permitted by Administrative Roles that have Modify access to the Security > Applications > Websites > Settings tab (on the Settings tab of the Administrative Role).

Export log to CSV file

To export the information found under the Log tab as a CSV file, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Workspace Control Console and navigate to Security > Applications > Websites > Log tab.

  2. Right-click on any entry and then select Export to file from the context-menu.

  3. Select a location where to save the CSV file, enter an appropriate name for the file and then select Save.

Export log using the command line

Ivanti recommends to test first by exporting just one or two days of data.

Security logs can also be exported using the pwrtech command line:

pwrtech.exe /exportlog /type=websites /output=<output filepath> [/outputtype=csv] [/start=<start date>] [/end=<end date>]

/outputtype, /start and /end are optional parameters. If /outputtype is not specified, then the security logs are exported as XML files instead of CSV files.

Replace the following with the appropriate values:

  • <output filepath> — Enter the full filepath where to save the CSV or XML file.
    For example: C:\export\websites.csv.

  • <start date> — Enter the start date to export log entries starting with the specified date.
    The format for date is YYYYMMDD. For example: 20161130.

  • <end date> — Enter the end date to export log entries up to the specified date.
    The format for date is YYYYMMDD. For example: 20180523.

For example:
pwrtech.exe /exportlog /type=websites /output=C:\export\websites.csv /outputtype=csv /start=20161130 /end=20180523
