By signing up for a MyGuard account, you can start using the MyGuard software to ensure your employees are doing what they're supposed to with your data. Create your account by entering your name, company name, and email account. You will receive a confirmation email which you will need to activate your account.

Once your account has been activated, you will be able to select users' roles and their data and device permissions. When you invite users, they will receive an email inviting them to download the MyGuard agent software to their computer. This is only the first time going through: any updates in users or permissions can easily be incorporated later.

Then you will be directed to your company Dashboard which gives an overview of all your MyGuard users and their permissions. From here you can go on to add more users or start using MyGuard to protect your data by allowing appropriate permissions.

Whether your data is stored locally or on network drive, It���s easy to add users and directories you want to secure from our web based Admin portal site. We recommend adding users first so that you have a user to manage when you began protecting data in a directory; otherwise, you have a directory with no users.

To begin adding users, on the Users screen, by clicking the Add button in the upper right corner.

• By entering user information, he/she will receive an email with your instructions and a link to download and install MyGuard Agent Software.
• Admin need to instruct users to check their emails to download Agent software.
• Once your users have installed the Agent Software, you are ready to apply permissions and polices for your data.

Next, add the directories you want to protect on the Directories screen, by clicking on the Add button.

• Enter the directory path to the files you want to secure.
• You have option to encrypt entire folder or designate a drive for mapping.
• Specify permissions by clicking on "+ADD MORE CUSTOMIZATION". Now you can choose our preset directory permissions (Block, Hide, Read Only), or create your own permissions through Custom Settings.
• Save your permissions and update your directory policy to send out to Agents.
• Agent will automatically receive the updated policies and apply to users.

The same process is used on the File Types screen by specifying file types you want to manage, such as PDF, PPTX, DOCX, JPEG. Our screens are all designed to match: once you learn how to use one, you can use them all easily.

Standardize your work environment and improve employee productivity by specifying applications from the web based Admin console. On Applications screen, by clicking the Add button.

• By clicking on "+ADD MORE CUSTOMIZATION", You can either block the application or limit users certain functions (Print, Cut & Paste, Drag & Drop, Screen Capture) within the application.
• Save your permissions and update your applications policy to send out to Agents.
• Agent will automatically receive the updated policies and apply to users.

From the Admin web console, allow or disallow user permissions for certain devices by clicking on the computer monitor under DEVICE CONTROL. Here you can edit who has access to what devices.

By clicking your name on the right corner from any screen, you will have a direct access to an Admin menu. You can create more Admins, updating profile, manage subscription. Admins always have remote access to your company account to manage Agents and users.
