UserLock Consoles
Compare the UserLock Desktop Console and Web Console, change the interface language, and adjust the display size.
The consoles are the primary way to manage UserLock. They allow administrators to:
Configure UserLock access policies and settings.
Manage the UserLock agents.
Monitor active sessions across the network.
Respond to security incidents in real time.
Assist users with MFA requests and access issues.
Generate, export, and analyze reports.
✅️ Automatically installed on the same server as UserLock.
✅️ No additional setup or configuration required.
⚙️ Runs under the same permissions as the UserLock Server service.
Note
Until version 12.2, the Desktop Console could be installed on any workstation for remote management.
Since version 13.0, it is restricted to the UserLock Server host to enhance security by limiting administration to controlled environments.
Use the Web Console for remote administration.
✅️ Required for remote administration.
✅️ Identical functionality to the Desktop Console.
✅️ Can be installed on the same server or another Windows host with IIS role.
✅️ Accessible from any modern browser (Edge, Chrome, Firefox).
✅️ Centralized management without requiring additional desktop installations.
