Leaving Behind Warning Text Document

The Leave Behind Warning Text Document in Place of Quarantine File setting allows you to have Spirion create a text file in place of a quarantined file named exactly the same as the original file including its extension but with a .txt appended to the end.  If your file was c:\test.doc then a file c:\test.doc.txt will be left in its place after it is quarantined.

The text file is useful to notify the original file owner that you moved their file securely.

The content of the text file can be configured in the Spirion Console and includes the ability to have dynamic content be a part of the message. For example, you can choose to display the name and location of the quarantined file as well as the location that the file was quarantined to.

Here is a sample of the text:

The original file, c:\test.doc, contained unsecured, personally identifiable information.  It has been quarantined to: d:\test.doc
