System Integrity Monitoring. Scan settings section

While the System Integrity Monitoring (ODFIM) task is running, each object change is determined by comparing the current state of the monitored objects with its original state, which was previously established as a baseline.

This feature is not supported in the KESL container.

The baseline is established during the first run of the ODFIM task on the computer. You can create several ODFIM tasks. For each ODFIM task, a separate baseline is created. The task is performed only if the baseline corresponds to the monitoring scope. If the baseline does not match the monitoring scope, Kaspersky Endpoint Security generates a system integrity violation event.

The baseline is rebuilt after an ODFIM task has finished. You can rebuild a baseline for a task using the corresponding setting. Also, a baseline is rebuilt when the settings of a task change, for example, if a new monitoring scope is added. The baseline will be rebuilt during the next task run. You can delete a baseline by deleting the corresponding ODFIM task.

The ODFIM task creates storage for baselines on a computer that has the System Integrity Monitoring component installed.

System Integrity Monitoring task settings

Setting	Description
Rebuild baseline on each task start	This check box enables or disables the reestablishment of a system baseline upon every start of the System Integrity Monitoring task. This check box is cleared by default.
Use hash for monitoring (SHA-256)	This check box enables or disables use of the SHA-256 hash for the System Integrity Monitoring task. SHA-256 is a cryptographic hash function that produces a 256-bit hash value. The 256-bit hash value is represented as a sequence of 64 hexadecimal digits. This check box is cleared by default.
Track directories in monitoring scopes	This check box enables or disables the monitoring of the specified directories while the System Integrity Monitoring task is running. This check box is cleared by default.
Track last file access time	This check box enables or disables tracking the file access time while the System Integrity Monitoring task runs. This check box is cleared by default.
Monitoring scopes	The table that contains the monitoring scopes scanned by the task. By default, the table contains the Kaspersky internal objects (/opt/kaspersky/kesl/) monitoring scope. You can add, configure, delete, move up, or move down monitoring scopes in the table. Clicking the Move down button moves the selected item down in the table. Kaspersky Endpoint Security scans objects in the specified scopes in the order they are listed in the table of scan scopes. If you want to configure security settings for a subdirectory that are different from the security settings of the parent directory, you must place the subdirectory higher than its parent directory in the table. This button is available if a scope is selected in the table. Clicking the Move up button moves the selected item up in the table. Kaspersky Endpoint Security scans objects in the specified scopes in the order they are listed in the table of scan scopes. If you want to configure security settings for a subdirectory that are different from the security settings of the parent directory, you must place the subdirectory higher than its parent directory in the table. This button is available if a scope is selected in the table. Clicking the Delete button excludes the selected scope from scans. This button is available if at least one scan scope is selected in the table. Clicking the scan scope name opens the <Scan scope name> window. In this window, you can modify the settings of the selected scan scope. Clicking the Add button opens the Scan scope name window. In this window, you can define a new scan scope.
