The following explains the steps required to scan compressed files for scheduled
scan:
Procedure
On the left menu, click Scheduled Scan.
Click Add, to create a new scheduled scan, or click the
Task Name to edit an existing one.
Under Select scan type, click the Security
risk scan link.
Select the Target tab. Under Advanced
Options, expand the Scan Restrictions
Criteria.
Note
Select the checkbox for the items you want to scan and set the
appropriate values.
Under Do not scan file if...
File size exceeds—type a value between
1-100-MB.
Select and type values for Do not scan compressed files
if, according to the following:
Decompressed file count exceeds [xxxxx]—type the
total decompressed file count (1-10000) that should not be exceeded.
When PortalProtect encounters a number of files equal to or greater than
this number it will not scan the files.
Size of Decompressed file exceeds [xxxx]—type a
value in megabytes (1-2048) to set a limit for the size of the
compressed files PortalProtect will scan. When PortalProtect encounters
a compressed file that is equal to or greater than this size, it will
not scan the file.
Number of layers of compression exceeds [xx]—type
a number (1-20) to set a limit for the number of layers of compression
to which PortalProtect will scan. When PortalProtect encounters a file
of a compression layer equal to or greater than this number it will not
scan the files.
Size of decompressed file is "x" times the size of compressed
file—decompressed files must not exceed the multiple
entered according to the compressed file size. Type a multiple
(100-1000000) that the decompressed file must not exceed. Decompressed
files that exceed the value: decompressed size is "x" times larger than
the compressed size, will not be scanned.
