Insight Security Auditing
With a tool as easy to use and as powerful as Insight, there’s always a possibility for misuse. A student
may be tempted to load the teacher soware and disrupt a class. While it is possible to add layers of
security to Insight to discourage misuse, overly stringent security layers would make Insight difficult
to use.
Insight provides a registry entry for each student computer. Each time the teacher broadcasts, views, or
blanks-out a student’s screen, or removes a student from the teacher channel list, the entry is added to
a record that tells what action was done, when it occurred, and who did it.
If someone is suspected of misusing Insight, use the Windows utility Regedit to look at any student’s
local registry.
To use Regedit to view a Insight action:
1. On a student computer, click Start followed by Run.
2. In the text box, type regedit. Click OK. A Registry Editor window appears, with
several folders.
3. Look at the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Soware\Insight for information
about any Insight actions that took place on this computer.
Access the security monitoring data by clicking View then Status Window. As soon as the teacher
performs actions, the security logging data appears.
