  • 1.  Security Risk definitions

    Posted Sep 09, 2013 09:21 AM

    Hello,

    Suspicious risks (Security risks) are manage in the Antivirus policy. Settings for these applications are different than Virus and Spyware.

    But are the definitions updates separated ? Of is it the same for "Virus and spyware" and "Security risks" : 'Virus  and Spyware definitions' ?

    Sonar definitions are in another content type it seems, but which one (I can see a lot of Sonar content types but not an explicit one for definitions).

     

    Thanks in advance for your help,

    Regards

    Security risks falls under the Virus and Spyware content.

    SONAR (PTP) is a separate content set

    Linked here is the different updates

    Thanks.

    So AV signatures gathered Virus/spyware + security risks. Do you know which Sonar content type is the definition one ?

    Should be the one called "SONAR Heuristics engine" in SEPM

    On this link, its the extended version under Behaviour-Based Protection
