  • In the above example, all services are active and all connections to our servers were successful. If a service wasn’t running or a connection to our servers failed, there would be a red X failure indicator under that section that you can click on to see either what service wasn’t running or what server connection failed.

  • Reasons why a service may not be running or a connection to the server failed can vary, but may include:

    • Antivirus blocking a service from running.

    • A firewall or VPN blocking connection to our servers.

    • If one of the two above items are the root cause of the issue, please see our PreVeil System Implementation Guide for IT Administrators for whitelisting suggestions for your AV and/or firewall and VPN.
