Adding exclusions

To add exclusions from the encryption protection scope, take the following steps:

1. Expand the Managed devices node in the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree.
2. Select the administration group for which you want to configure application settings.
3. Perform one of the following actions in the details pane of the selected administration group:
   • To configure application settings for a group of protected devices, select the Policies tab and open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
   • To configure the settings of a task or application for an individual protected device, select the Devices tab and go to local task settings or application settings.
4. In the Network activity control section, click the Settings button in the Anti-Cryptor subsection.

   The Anti-Cryptor window opens.

5. On the Exclusions tab, select the Apply exclusion list check box.
   

   If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes does not detect malicious encryption activity that occurs in the specified areas when the Anti-Cryptor task is run.

   If the check box is cleared, Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes detects encryption activity in all shared folders.

   By default, the check box is selected and the exclusion list includes following items added by Kaspersky experts:

   • *.stt;
   • *.sig;
   • *.exe;
   • *.sldprt.
6. Click the Add button.

   The Exclusion from the controlled scope window opens.

7. Click the Browse button to select a folder, or enter the folder manually.
8. Click the OK button.

The excluded area will be added to the list.
