EPO 2.5.1-policy to make Virusscan 4.51 do CD on access scans?

[perryh73]

Hi,

Im adjusting EPO 2.5.1 for a client and need to enforce an "on access scan" for cd's, aalready done) and ANY other removeable media.
They have two versions of Virusscan, 4.51 and 6.0.0 and both need these policies asap so if its possible, how to do it? I cant see a way to cover cd's and other media...

Any help much appreciated.

AFAIK, 6.0.0 is a RETAIL version. It's not manageable via ePO.

By default, you don't have to do ANYTHING as both products are set to scan CDs and other removable media ON-ACCESS. If you're looking to do a full scan when a CD is inserted, that will not be possible unless you have direct API access (which is not available in 4.5.1). However, the On-Access scanner will check EXECUTABLE files on a CD when inserted (or actually accessed by the OS for verification if readable).

HTH,

PS: I'm back
