Notifications > FTP Blocked File Type
In addition to scanning FTP uploads and downloads, InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance can block file types at the FTP gateway. To prevent performance issues, the FTP scanning module supports special configurations for compressed files and large files. Spyware and grayware scanning is also supported.
InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance FTP scanning can be deployed into your environment in conjunction with another FTP proxy server or InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance can act as its own FTP proxy. And to help ensure the security of the InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance server, several security-related configurations are available to control access to the InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance server and its ports.
Send a message when the FTP blocked file type is accessed—Depending on what InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance has been configured to block, this option can result in a large number of notification messages sent to the default recipient. As an alternative to item-by-item notifications, bear in mind that blocked files are written to log, and can be included in one of the IWSVA generated reports.
Tip: Have notifications sent to a dedicated email account rather than your personal account to reduce the number of messages received. Alternatively, you may want to set up an email rule to process IWSVA messages.
Whenever InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance detects a virus or other Internet threat in client FTP traffic—uploads and downloads—users will be notified at their FTP command prompt. If the user is using a FTP client, the message is displayed using whatever method the client software provides for session text.
You can append a custom message to the IWSVA default by selecting both the Default and Customized options.
