Description
The Google Analytics feature aims to help Red Hat EAP team understand how customers are using the console and which parts of the console matter the most to the customers. This information will, in turn, help the team to adapt the console design, features, and content to the immediate needs of the customers. Sending analytical data to the vendor introduces risk of unauthorized data exfiltration. This capability must be disabled.
