Brute-force attack protection exclusions

Brute-force exclusions can be used to suppress Brute-force detection for specific criteria. These exclusions are created from ESET PROTECT based on Brute-force detection. The exclusions will be displayed if an administrator creates Brute-force exclusions in ESET PROTECT Web Console. Exclusions can contain allowing rules only and are evaluated before IDS rules.

Detection—Type of detection.

Application—Select the file path of an excepted application by clicking ... (for example C:\Program Files\Firefox\Firefox.exe). Do not type the name of the application.

Remote IP—A list of remote IPv4 or IPv6 address/ranges/subnets. Multiple addresses must be separated by a comma.
