Before configuring Anti-Virus protection in the message processing rule, make sure that the Anti-Virus module is enabled in general protection settings.
To configure Anti-Virus protection in the message processing rule:
- In the application web interface window, select the Rules section.
- In the rule table, select the rule for which you want to configure Anti-Virus protection.
This opens the View rule window.
- Click Edit.
Rule settings become editable.
- In the left pane, select the Anti-Virus section.
- Use the toggle switch to the right of the section title to enable or disable Anti-Virus scanning of messages that match rule criteria.
Anti-Virus protection of messages is enabled by default.
- If you have disabled Anti-Virus scanning at the previous step, configure Anti-Virus module settings applied to the following objects based on the results of the scan:
- If necessary, configure the list of exclusions from scanning. To do so, under Exclusions from scanning:
- If you want to exclude archives from Anti-Virus scans, turn on the Do not scan archives toggle switch.
- If you want to exclude attached objects with certain names from Anti-Virus scans, in the Do not scan attachments by name masks field, enter a name mask and press ENTER.
Enter masks one by one. Repeat the steps for each mask you want to add.
Masks are case-insensitive and may contain any characters.
- Click Save.
Anti-Virus protection is configured. The specified settings are applied to messages that match the rule criteria.
To ensure that the configured settings are applied by KSMG, make sure that Anti-Virus scanning is enabled for the rule and the configured rule is enabled.
