During a virus outbreak, start Outbreak Prevention Mode to deploy attack-specific Outbreak Prevention Policies and minimize the chance of your network becoming infected. Start Outbreak Prevention Mode to counter a single, specific threat. After completing the following tasks, you must complete another set to completely start Outbreak Prevention Mode.
Control Manager automatically generates OPS reports after each OPS task completes.
To start Outbreak Prevention Mode:
Click Services on the main menu.
On the leftmost menu under Services, click Outbreak Prevention. This page automatically refreshes to make sure the top threat and status information is current.
On the working area under Service Status, click Update Now to download the latest Outbreak Prevention Policies (this is optional if you have already enabled Scheduled Update and are using the latest Outbreak Prevention Policies).
Click OK twice after downloading the Outbreak Prevention Policies.
Under Top Threats Around the World, click the name of the virus that currently presents a threat to your network. Control Manager lists newest threat first, and the remaining threats in alphabetic order. Each Outbreak Prevention Policy is designed to counter a specific threat.
Click Start Outbreak Prevention Mode.
