|
||
|
||
Use Task Manager to check the context of your apps while running in Windows Information Protection (WIP) to make sure that your organization's policies are applied and running correctly.
|
||
|
||
## Viewing the Enterprise Context column in Task Manager
|
||
You need to add the Enterprise Context column to the **Details** tab of the Task Manager.
|
||
|
||
1. Make sure that you have an active WIP policy deployed and turned on in your organization.
|
||
|
||
2. Open the Task Manager (taskmgr.exe), click the **Details** tab, right-click in the column heading area, and click **Select columns**.
|
||
|
||
The **Select columns** box appears.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
3. Scroll down and check the **Enterprise Context** option, and then click **OK** to close the box.
|
||
|
||
The **Enterprise Context** column should now be available in Task Manager.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Review the Enterprise Context
|
||
The **Enterprise Context** column shows you what each app can do with your enterprise data:
|
||
|
||
- **Domain.** Shows the employee's work domain (such as, corp.contoso.com). This app is considered work-related and can freely touch and open work data and resources.
|
||
|
||
- **Personal.** Shows the text, *Personal*. This app is considered non-work-related and can't touch any work data or resources.
|
||
|
||
- **Exempt.** Shows the text, *Exempt*. WIP policies don't apply to these apps (such as, system components).
|
||
|
||
>**Important**<br>Enlightened apps can change between Work and Personal, depending on the data being touched. For example, Microsoft Word 2016 shows as **Personal** when an employee opens a personal letter, but changes to **Work** when that same employee opens the company financials.
