OctoWatch DLP is employee monitoring and data loss prevention software built specifically for Windows environments. It combines workstation activity recording, policy enforcement, and risk investigation into a single Web Console. A lightweight Grabber agent installs on each PC and streams data to either a hosted Cloud service or an On-Premise setup with your own server and Microsoft SQL database. Unlike basic time trackers, OctoWatch DLP covers live screen viewing, keystroke logging, USB and file blocking, and a dedicated Risks feed—all from one platform.
Watch workstation screens in real time and take over a session when intervention is needed. This works across both physical Windows PCs and RDS sessions, making it practical for helpdesk and security response.
Configure rules that notify your team, open a Risk case, or outright block actions like USB transfers, web uploads, or file copies. Computer Profile filtering lets you apply different policies to different groups.
When enabled in a Settings Profile, keystroke logging captures typed input, while App & Website modules track applications, sites, searches, and active versus idle time. This goes well beyond simple hour counting.
Cloud requires only the Grabber agent and works with floating licenses by active tracked users. On-Premise keeps the server and SQL database entirely on your network—no external dependencies.
OctoWatch DLP turns monitoring from passive recording into active protection—blocking risky actions before they become incidents.
Most tools either track time or attempt DLP, but rarely both in one console. OctoWatch DLP merges live monitoring, keystroke review, and enforceable rules into a single workflow. The Risks feed gives investigators a starting point, then lets them drill into screenshots, files, messages, and Day Viewer context without switching platforms. For Windows-only shops, the Terminal Server / RDS support and floating license model add flexibility that generic SaaS trackers often lack.
You run a Windows-centric organization and need more than timesheets—especially if you're juggling separate tools for monitoring, DLP, and insider risk. If you require an On-Premise option for compliance or data residency, or you manage RDS environments, OctoWatch DLP is a strong fit. It's free to try, and the Cloud trial starts with just the Grabber, so you can validate it against your own fleet quickly.
