Specifying global exclusion scope

You can specify a global exclusion scope for the File Threat Protection task. Files in the global exclusion scope are excluded from the real-time protection scopes.

To create a global exclusion scope,

  1. Save the File Threat Protection task settings to a file using the following command:

    kesl-control --get-settings <task name or task ID> --file <full path to the configuration file>

  2. Add [ExcludedFromScanScope.item_#] sections to the created file. Each [ExcludedFromScanScope.item_#] section includes the following settings:
    • AreaMask—specifies file name masks for files to be excluded from the protection scope.
    • AreaDesc—specifies the unique name of the exclusion scope.
    • Path—specifies the path to the files to be excluded from the protection scope.
  3. Import settings from the configuration file to the File Threat Protection task using the following command:

    kesl-control --set-settings <task name or task ID> --file <full path to the configuration file>
