Introduction

In Securepoint Antivirus Pro there are further settings for configuring the client. The configuration options are structured according to the different areas on the tabs.

Update

 Update 

Update Settings

In the update settings you can activate the automatic check for updates and the option that product updates (client updates) are installed automatically.

For environments in which a proxy server is used, a proxy server can be configured.

Exclusions

 Exclusions 

In the Securepoint Antivirus Pro Client, exceptions can be defined for files and folders, processes, or the size of the file. An exclusion is defined either due to false positives or performance problems (for example, in connection with DATEV).

Due to security reasons an exception should always only be a workaround.

Exclusions on files and folders must be specified as the path or file name is. Wildcards such as asterisks (*) and question marks (?) can also be used for exceptions. The question mark stands for exactly one character and the asterisk for unlimited characters.

Beispiele:

• C:\Programm Files (x86)\Securepoint SSL VPN\*
• securepoint_2019-??-??-??:??.zip
• eicar.com

Extras

Additional Settings

In the Additional settings you can specify that system monitoring is automatically activated after a restart of the computer if it was previously deactivated. Password protection for the client can also be enabled here. If this is enabled, the settings of Securepoint Antivirus Pro can only be changed after entering the password. Activating this option ensures that unauthorized users do not make any changes to the settings. This password protection also applies to activating or deactivating system monitoring.

The Restore to default Settings button undoes all your changes and resets Securepoint Antivirus Pro to its post-installation state.

Anti-Spam

  Anti-Spam  

The Outlook® Plugin with the Anti-Spam Module will no longer be included in future versions released after 31.10.2021 (with a version number higher than 3.3.32).

However, everything that is to be stored on the hard disk (attachments, reloaded (malicious) code and downloads) will still be detected by the AV On-Access Scanner. However, the individual classification according to changeable values into Spam and Possible Spam will no longer be possible.
