Modifying the list of exclusions

You can add exclusions based on three criteria:

• Path
• IP address
• User ID

You can use any combination of these criteria for exclusion. The more criteria are specified, the more strict the exclusion parameters are. Kaspersky Security for Windows Server does not analyze file operations for specified exclusions. Note that exclusions added to this list are used for all folders on network attached storage.

If you simultaneously configure anti-virus protection and FPolicy on the same network attached storage, access to the storage shared folders will be possible only if the RPC Network Storage Protection and Anti-Cryptor for NetApp tasks are running.

The external engine should have only one network interface card with one IP address.

To add or modify the list of exclusion:

1. Expand the Managed devices node in the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree and select the administration group for which you want to configure application settings.
2. To configure application settings for a group of servers, select the Policies tab and open the properties of the policy you want to configure.
3. In the Network attached storage protection section click the Settings button the Anti-Cryptor for NetApp section.
4. Select the Exclusion list tab.
5. Select the Do not detect encryption for the specified exclusions check box.
   

   If the check box is selected, all file operations executed by the user / IP address / path specified in the list below are allowed.

   If the check box is cleared, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server detects encryption activity from all hosts, users and paths.

   The check box is cleared by default.

   The list of exclusions becomes active.
