Description
Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business
Edition automatically creates exceptions, or
exclusions, for some third-party application and
some Symantec products.
You can also configure individual scans to scan
only certain extensions and skip any other
extensions.
See About the files and folders that Symantec
Endpoint Protection excludes from virus and
spyware scans" on page 146.
You add exceptions in an Exceptions policy
directly. Or you can add exceptions from log
events on the Monitors page.
See Creating exceptions for Symantec Endpoint
Protection Small Business Edition"
See Creating exceptions from log events in
Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager"
on page 249.
By default, users on client computers have limited
configuration rights for exceptions. You can
restrict users further so that they cannot create
exceptions for virus and spyware scans or for
SONAR.
Users can never force an application detection
and they never have permission to create Tamper
Protection exceptions.
See Restricting the types of exceptions that users
can configure on client computers"
After Symantec Endpoint Protection Small
Business Edition makes a detection, you can create
an exception for the detection from the log event.
For example, you might want to create an
exception for a file that scans detect but that your
users request to download.
