PortalProtect protects SharePoint Server and SharePoint Services in many ways during a virus outbreak. The following is a list of methods you can use to protect your Portal environment:
Use PortalProtect notifications to create an early warning for your administrator or IT professionals.
Use Update Now to immediately download the latest virus pattern file and scan engine. Configure and run a manual scan and set PortalProtect to take action against any viruses. For fast and efficient action, select features such as IntelliScan and ActiveAction and PortalProtect will use Trend Micro recommended blocks and actions against viruses.
Set the blocking options for manual or real-time scanning to detect a specific file type or name. Set an action like: block or quarantine for PortalProtect to take action on a file type or file name to prevent it from infecting your SharePoint servers.
This method is very effective if you
know the exact name of the virus. Virus alert information is available
