Page 16: On-Demand Scanner
This chapter describes the On-demand and On-access scanner configuration which will provide the most effective protection from virus and worm file system infections. ESET File Security's scanning power is derived from the On-demand scanner command 'esets_scan' and the On-access scanner command 'esets_dac'. The Linux version of ESET File Security offers an additional On-access scanner technique which uses the preloaded library module libesets_pac. -
Page 17: Installation And Configuration
Every file system object is scanned based on customizable file access event types. The following event types are supported by the current version: Open events This file access type is activated if the word 'open' is present in the 'event_mask‘ parameter in the eset.cfg file ([dac] section). In this case, the ON_OPEN bit of Dazuko access mask is set to on. Close events This file access type is activated if the word 'close' is present in the 'event_mask‘ parameter in the eset.cfg file ([dac] section). In this case, the ON_CLOSE bit and ON_CLOSE_MODIFIED bit of Dazuko access mask is set to on. -
Page 18: On-Access Scanner Using Preload Libc Library
This file access type is activated if the word 'open' is present in the 'event_mask‘ parameter in the eset.cfg file ([pac] section). close events This file access type is activated if the word ‘close‘ is present in the ‘event_mask‘ parameter in the eset.cfg file ([pac] section). In this case, all file descriptor and FILE stream close functions of the LIBC are intercepted. exec events This file access type is activated if the word ‘exec‘ is present in the ‘event_mask‘ parameter in the eset.cfg ([pac] section). In this case, all exec functions of the LIBC are intercepted. -
Page 19: Installation And Configuration
All opened, closed and executed files are scanned by the ESETS daemon for viruses. Based on the result of such scans, access to given files is denied or allowed. 5.3.2. Installation and configuration The libesets_pac.so library module is installed using a standard installation mechanism of the preloaded libraries. One has just to define the environment variable ‘LD_PRELOAD‘ with the absolute path to the libesets_pac.so library. -
