In order to obtain user names for filtering and reporting purposes, they enable the authentication of all Web requests. An issue that arises with authentication is that there are some Web apps that do not respond to authentication requests.\u00a0 This is the case with Windows 8 apps.<\/p>\n<p>In order for the Windows 8 operating system to download apps through CyBlock Software or CyBlock Appliance, entries need to be made in the Authentication Manager. This work-around puts these apps in an authentication \u201cBypass\u201d list where they are exempt from authentication. CyBlock will not require authentication for any URL\/User-Agent combination established in the Bypass list. Any user name cached for this connection will be used. If none is cached, the activity will be logged with the user name of \u201cbypass.\u201d The steps below should be followed.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to the <strong>Advanced Settings &#8211; Proxy Settings<\/strong> screen, and click the <strong>Authentication Manager<\/strong>link.<\/li>\n<li>Under <strong>Display Selection<\/strong>, select <strong>Bypassed<\/strong> or <strong>All<\/strong> to display the Bypassed entries.
