Secure Data Transfer System

[Jobos]

Been having problems with the Secure Data Transfer System that’s used to download CTF files and such like.

The problem is that staff don’t realise that when they see a gold bar appear at the top of IE they need to click it to download the file. I was handed a paper today that they printed from teachernet that explained how to turn off the file prompting but as it’s a security feature I’m reluctant to do that. I’ve added the address https://securedatatransfer.teachernet.gov.uk to the trusted sites list but the file prompting continues. What else can I do?

You could disable the prompt for trusted sites, set the security level to custom and disable the automatic prompt for downloads.

I would block people from adding sites to trusted. Do like teejay says (using GP).

Anything *.gov.uk is safe. Just thinking ahead

Initial link may be NSFW, second link searches .gov.uk domains for compromised pages and find 77 results, third link searches .sch.uk domains and finds 18 results.
