File Threat Protection prevents infection of the device's file system. The File Threat Protection task is created automatically with the default settings when you install Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes on a device. By default, the File Threat Protection task starts automatically when the application starts. The task resides in the device's RAM and scans all opened, saved, and active files.
Administrator role privileges are required to start and stop the File Threat Protection task from the command line.
When malware is detected, Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes can delete the infected file and terminate the malicious process started from this file.
While the File Threat Protection task is running, the application scans all namespaces and containers on all supported operating systems if the value of the NamespaceMonitoring
setting in the general application settings is set to Yes
. Additionally, for Astra Linux, a custom virus scan task (Scan_File) allows files from other namespaces to be scanned (as part of a mandatory scan). You can separately configure general settings for scanning containers and namespaces.
The application does not scan namespaces and containers unless components for working with containers and namespaces are installed in the operating system. Moreover, when viewing application information in the Container Monitoring row, "The task is available and not running"
is displayed.
File Threat Protection user tasks cannot be created. You can modify the settings of the default File Threat Protection task.
If InterceptorProtectionMode
is set to Notify
in the general application settings, then when infected objects are detected, the application does not perform the actions specified in the FirstAction
and SecondAction
settings of the File Threat Protection task.
