How to disable collection of user name in SharePoint tagging

Products

Cause

In some situations you may not want to collect personal information about your users within a SharePoint environment. This can be disabled by setting certain flags within the Webtrends load file and/or plugins.

To stop collecting just the username, the following options for the Webtrends SharePoint plugin should be set to “false”

  • username
  • userlogin
  • dcsaut
  • dcsvid
To disable the collection of all personal information about users, set the following options all to “false”:
  • extraUserInfo
  • username
  • userlogin
  • dcsaut
  • dcsvid
Also, if you are using the Webtrends User Info Collector, that should be disabled to stop the collection of the SharePoint User Name.
