ServerProtect provides the ability to
exclude files, directories, and file types from scanning. This feature can be used
to avoid
scanning quarantine directories and certain virus-proof files. In the unlikely event
that the
scan engine causes false alarms, you can temporarily include the misidentified file
in this
list.

NoteEach type of scan has its own exclusion list, allowing you better control over how
each scan
performs.

The following describes the type of lists you can configure to be excluded from scanning:
-
Directories to exclude: Use this list to exclude whole directories from scanning.
-
Files to exclude: Use this list to exclude specified files from scanning.
-
File types to exclude: This list prevents ServerProtect from scanning specific file types.
