4 On the Blocking tab, configure blocking connections from remote computers that write

files with potential threats or unwanted programs.

NOTE: By default, when a remote system writes any malware to a system with VirusScan

Enterprise, VirusScan Enterprise blocks the connection to that remote system.

You can also configure a message that is sent to the system that has written the malware.

NOTE: To send this message requires Windows Messenger service.

5 On the Messages tab, configure messages to notify local users when detections occur

with a configured message, and specify which actions the user can take against the threat.

6 On the Reports tab, enable the scanning activity log files and define where they are stored,

their size, format, and any additional scan logging to help you diagnose this threat.

NOTE: These log files are very helpful when you diagnose security threats and help

determine which actions to take against these threats.

Configuring process settings

based on the risk assigned to each process. Parameters include assigning risk you assign to

processes, defining items to scan, performing Artemis scanning, scanning compressed files,
