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.
Note
Note
Each 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.
WARNING
WARNING
Real-time Scan will not function if the list of directories to exclude is empty.
