E.4.2 Securing the Quarantine

E.4.3 Administration Issues

Problem:
I have installed F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange and I'm
worried about security of the local Quarantine storage where stripped
attachments are quarantined. What do you recommend me?
Solution:
F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange creates and adjusts access
rights to the local Quarantine storage during the installation. Keep in mind
the following when setting up the local Quarantine storage:
Do not place the Quarantine storage on a FAT drive. FAT file
system does not support access rights on directories and files for
different users. If you place the Quarantine storage on a FAT
drive everyone who has access to that drive will be able to get
access to the quarantined content.
Create and adjust access rights to the Quarantine storage
manually if you use one on a network drive.
Create and adjust access rights to the Quarantine storage
manually when you change its path from F-Secure Policy
Manager Console or F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange
Web Console.
Some settings are initially configured during the installation of
F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange and F-Secure
Content Scanner Server. They can be viewed on the Status tab of
F-Secure Policy Manager Console.
When changing such settings in F-Secure Policy Manager
Console for the first time, you must enforce the change by
selecting the Final check box.
