Scope name

Field for entering the protection scope name. This name will be displayed in the table in the Scan scopes window.

The entry field must not be blank.

Use this scope

This check box enables or disables scans of this scope by the application.

If this check box is selected, the application processes this protection scope during the component operation.

If this check box is cleared, the application does not process this protection scope during the component operation. You can later include this scope in the component operation settings by selecting the check box.

The check box is selected by default.

File system, access protocol, and path

The settings block lets you set the scan scope.

You can select the file system type in the drop-down list of file systems:

• Local, for local directories.
• Shared displays server file system resources accessible via the Samba or NFS protocol.
• All shared (default value) displays all server file system resources accessible via the Samba and NFS protocols.

If Shared is selected in the drop-down list of file systems, you can select the remote access protocol in the drop-down list on the right:

• NFS: remote directories mounted on a device using the NFS protocol.
• Samba: remote directories mounted on a device using the Samba protocol.

If Local is selected in the drop-down list of file systems, then in the input field you can enter a path to a directory that you want to add to the protection scope. You can use masks to specify the path.

The field must not be blank.

Masks

This list contains name masks of the objects that the application scans during operation of the Anti-Cryptor component.

By default the list contains the * mask (all objects).

You can add, edit, or delete masks.
