Excluded applications

Use it to exclude communications for specific network-aware applications from protocol filtering. HTTP/POP3/IMAP communication for the selected applications will not be scanned for threats. We recommend only using this technique when applications do not function properly with protocol filtering enabled.

To exclude application from scanning:

1.In ESET PROTECT, click Policies > New policy and type a name for the policy.

2.Click Settings and select ESET Endpoint for Linux (V7+) from the drop-down menu.

3.Navigate to Protections > Web access protection and click Edit next to Excluded applications.

4.Click Add, define the Path to be skipped by the scanner.

5.Click OK, then click Save to close the dialog.

6.Click Continue > Assign, select the desired group of computers the policy will apply to.

7.Click OK, then click Finish.
