By restricting policy configuration to the Default Processes policy, all processes will be interpreted equally when applying the policy settings and will provide the highest level of protection. Best practice dictates configuring Low Risk and/or High Risk policies only when it is necessary to improve system performance, and will focus the scanning where it is most likely to detect malware. There is risk associated with configuring the Low Risk and/or High Risk policies for the purpose of specifically excluding processes from scanning, and should only be done after evaluating other policy settings and determining risk.&lt;/VulnDiscussion&gt;&lt;FalsePositives&gt;&lt;/FalsePositives&gt;&lt;FalseNegatives&gt;&lt;/FalseNegatives&gt;&lt;Documentable&gt;false&lt;/Documentable&gt;&lt;Mitigations&gt;&lt;/Mitigations&gt;&lt;SeverityOverrideGuidance&gt;&lt;/SeverityOverrideGuidance&gt;&lt;PotentialImpacts&gt;&lt;/PotentialImpacts&gt;&lt;ThirdPartyTools&gt;&lt;/ThirdPartyTools&gt;&lt;MitigationControl&gt;&lt;/MitigationControl&gt;&lt;Responsibility&gt;System Administrator&lt;/Responsibility&gt;&lt;Responsibility&gt;Information Assurance Officer&lt;/Responsibility&gt;&lt;IAControls&gt;&lt;/IAControls&gt;</description><reference><dc:title>DPMS Target McAfee AntiVirus Locally Configured Client</dc:title><dc:publisher>DISA</dc:publisher><dc:type>DPMS Target</dc:type><dc:subject>McAfee AntiVirus Locally Configured Client</dc:subject><dc:identifier>605</dc:identifier></reference><ident system="http://iase.disa.mil/cci">CCI-001242</ident><fixtext fixref="F-49136r1_fix">Access the local VirusScan console by clicking Start-&gt;All Programs-&gt;McAfee-&gt;VirusScan Console.

The “About” dialog box will be displayed, showing, among other information, the current DAT version installed and the date of that DAT version.
Guidance in DTAM016 requires updates be run daily, automatically or manually. If compliant, the DAT date will be within 24-48 hours old. Since automated update tasks’ success is not guaranteed, the expectation is for update task success to be frequently monitored and corrected when unsuccessful. To allow for that correction, the minimum acceptable threshold for DAT date is not to exceed 7 days.

The collective intelligence is constantly being updated, more frequently than the typical daily antivirus signature files. With File Reputation lookup, a more real-time response to potential malicious code is realized than with the local-running antivirus software, since by querying the cloud-based database when a file appears to be suspicious, up-to-the-minute intelligence is provided. This type of protection reduces the threat protection time period from days to milliseconds, increases malware detection rates, and reduces downtime and remediation costs associated with malware attacks.

Most viruses need to be run once by a person before infecting a computer. This can be done in many ways, such as opening an executable attachment in an email or downloading a program from the Internet. An executable needs to exist on the disk before Windows can run it. A common way for applications to achieve this is to save the file in the user's or system's Temp directory and then run it. One purpose of this rule is to enforce advice that is frequently given to users: "do not open attachments from email." The other purpose of this rule is to close security holes introduced by application bugs.

This provides the most protection, but also has a higher chance of blocking a legitimate application from being installed.
Intention: Most viruses need to be run once by a person before infecting a computer. This can be done in many ways, such as opening an executable attachment in an email, downloading a program from the Internet, etc. For example, &lt;http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_101034.htm&gt;.
An executable needs to exist on the disk before Windows can run it. A common way for applications to achieve this is to save the file in the user’s or system’s Temp directory and then run it.
One purpose of this rule is to enforce advice that is frequently given to people: “don’t open attachments from email.” The other purpose of this rule is to close security holes introduced by application bugs. Older versions of Outlook and Internet Explorer are notorious for automatically executing code without the user needing to do anything but preview an email or view a website.
Risks: All applications that are protected by these rules offer alternatives to running executables, such as saving them somewhere else on the disk and running from there. So the downside of the rules is that users may need to learn a few extra steps before doing things they can do more quickly now.
Note: Enabling this rule may prevent some applications from functioning outright.&lt;/VulnDiscussion&gt;&lt;FalsePositives&gt;&lt;/FalsePositives&gt;&lt;FalseNegatives&gt;&lt;/FalseNegatives&gt;&lt;Documentable&gt;false&lt;/Documentable&gt;&lt;Mitigations&gt;&lt;/Mitigations&gt;&lt;SeverityOverrideGuidance&gt;&lt;/SeverityOverrideGuidance&gt;&lt;PotentialImpacts&gt;&lt;/PotentialImpacts&gt;&lt;ThirdPartyTools&gt;&lt;/ThirdPartyTools&gt;&lt;MitigationControl&gt;&lt;/MitigationControl&gt;&lt;Responsibility&gt;&lt;/Responsibility&gt;&lt;IAControls&gt;&lt;/IAControls&gt;</description><reference><dc:title>DPMS Target McAfee AntiVirus Locally Configured Client</dc:title><dc:publisher>DISA</dc:publisher><dc:type>DPMS Target</dc:type><dc:subject>McAfee AntiVirus Locally Configured Client</dc:subject><dc:identifier>605</dc:identifier></reference><ident system="http://iase.disa.mil/cci">CCI-001243</ident><fixtext fixref="F-64761r2_fix">Access the local VirusScan console by clicking Start &gt;&gt; All Programs &gt;&gt; McAfee &gt;&gt; VirusScan Console.
