Release Notes: WinAgent 8.2.16
Our latest Windows Agent release: 8.2.16 automatically detects mouse mover applications, or "mouse jigglers," that fake mouse movement to mimic active, productive digital work.
If one of these applications is detected, a new Activity Log entry will be created with the title of ‘POTENTIAL FALSE ACTIVITY’ and the executable name of the mouse jiggler application will be included in the description.
The new Activity Log entries are specific to the user and application, so Admins can take targeted action. Admins can set up Alarms filtering on ‘POTENTIAL FALSE ACTIVITY’ to proactively notify them of detected mouse jiggler apps and classify them to ‘IGNORE’. Learn more here.
This Activity Log entry builds on a WinAgent 8.2.15 feature that automatically detects the fake movements themselves – from both software and hardware-based mouse jigglers – and switches logging from ‘ACTIVE’ to ‘PASSIVE’.
