Choosing an Infection Treatment (Scan Tab)
You can instruct the software to perform one of the following file actions when an
infected file is found:
Setting the Type of Files to Scan (Selections tab)
Use the Selections tab options to choose the types of objects to scan, the types of file
extensions to include or exclude from a scan, and the types of compressed files to
scan.
• File Extensions — You can choose to scan files regardless of extension, or select
specific types of extensions to include or exclude.
• Compressed Files — To scan compressed files, select the Scan Compressed Files
check box, and then click
Choose Type to specify the compressed file extension
types.
Filtering File Information for Logs (Manual Scans Only)
You can specify the types of events that are written to a log. Check the Infected files
option to put information in the log about files that are found to be infected. Check
the Clean files option to put information in the log about files that are scanned and
are not infected. Check the Skipped files option to put information in the log about
files that have been excluded from the scan.
File Actions Description
Report Only (Default) Reports when an infection is found.
Delete File Deletes an infected file.
Rename File Renames an infected file with an AVB extension. Infected files with the
same name are given incremental extensions (e.g., FILE.0.AVB,
FILE.1.AVB, and so on). After a file is renamed with an AVB-type of
extension, it is not scanned subsequently.
Move File Moves an infected file from its current directory to the Move directory for
quarantine.
Cure File Attempts to cure an infected file automatically. Choosing this setting
enables the File Options button. Click this button to display the Cure
Action Options and specify how the Cure File option performs.
Note The System Cure option is not available on SnapServers.
