Synchronize action

Purpose

The Synchronize action synchronizes the agent and RCS server.

The synchronization process is broken down in the following steps:

Step Description
1 Reciprocal agent/RCS server authentication.
2 Agent/RCS server time synchronization.
3 Agent removal in the event the relevant activity is closed.
4 Agent configuration update.
5 Upload of all files in the "upload" queue.
6 Download of all files in the "download" queue.
7 Download of all evidence collected by the agent with simultaneous secure removal.
8 Secure removal of all downloaded evidence from the agent.
Desktop settings
Name Description
Host

Name of the Anonymizer to connect to for synchronization. Select the name of the server or enter the FQDN (DNS name) or IP address in the combo box.

Band Maximum bandwidth to be used during synchronization.
Minimum delay Minimum delay in seconds from one evidence sent to the next.
Maximum delay Maximum delay in seconds from one evidence sent to the next.
Stop is successfully completed If enabled, the sub-action chain is interrupted when synchronization is successfully completed. Remaining sub-actions in the queue are not run.
Mobile settings
Name Description
Host

Anonymizer name or IP address to connect to for synchronization. Select the name of the server or enter the FQDN (DNS name) or IP address in the combo box.

Stop is successfully completed If enabled, the sub-action chain is interrupted when synchronization is successfully completed. Remaining sub-actions in the queue are not run.
Type

Internet: synchronization via Internet connection.

  • Force WiFi: synchronization via WiFi network. Forces a WiFi data connection with any open or preset WiFi network available before starting synchronization.
  • Force Cell: synchronization via GPRS/UMTS/3G network . Forces a GPRS/UMTS/3G data connection with the mobile operator before starting synchronization.

APN: specifies the login credentials for the APN the phone can use to collect data.
This is useful since it avoids charging the target for the traffic generated by the agent.

Connection type selection criteria (Windows Phone)

For Windows Phone, the system internally defines the type of connection to be used regardless of set parameters.

If the device is set to support both WiFi and 3G/4G and there is a set and running WiFi connection, the system will use the 3G/4G network when the device screen is off and not charging or the WiFI network in other cases.
