Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 - Exclude files and locations == Exclude processes??

Hi,
I have a server with Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 installed.
This server is running Backup Exec. I have created an files and folder exclusion pointing to:
C:\Program Files\Symantec
There are various references online like this one
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH74529
Which highlight excluding the processes rather than what I have done...
If the process is inside the Symantec folder is there any technical difference between using the files and folder exclusion as opposed to the process exclusion?

Yes, the difference is that excluding the folder location will only exclude the folder and the child items of that specific location from scanning activity whereas excluding a process will exclude any activity by the process regardless of location. So,
with a process exclusion, if that process under C:\Program Files\Symantec produces activity in C:\Windows, the activity will be excluded from scanning, but if you just have the C:\Program Files\Symantec folder excluded, the activity in C:\Windows will not
be excluded.

Steps to install Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010?

I've been searching on how to install Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 on a Windows Server 2012 R2 Server. I can't seem to find anything about this. Can someone tell me the steps I need to take. I installed SQL 2012, then SCCM
2012, but when I launch the Forefront 2010 installer its saying it can't find SCCM 2007. I take it its not supported in Forefront 2010? Anyways, if there are instructions on how to install the Endpoint Protection and Exchange Online protection I'd appreciate
it.
Fernando

Hi,
In SCCM 2012 Endpoint Protection 2012 is integrated so you cannot install FEP 2010 in it. Add the Site System role called "Endpoint Protection" on your Primary site server, CAS if you use a CAS and then you are good to go.
the steps are described here:

Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 Antimalware Activity and Antimalware Protection Summary Reports aren't rendering properly.

The Antimalware Activity and Antimalware Protection Summary Reports aren't rendering properly. When I export them to PDF, they look normal but when I run either one of these reports through they don't display properly. In the Antimalware
Protection Summary report, the Latest Antimalware Protection Summary title bar has been extended and the Status legend is coved by white space and Latest Antimalware Definitions Summary title bar has been extended and Period legend
are covered by white space. On the same page the Antimalware Protection History-Week has been flushed to the right to where it only dispays Antimalw and the Antimalware Definitions History-Week has been flushed to the right to where it only dispays
Antimalw. On the Antimalware Activity the Actions legend has been flushed to the left.

This is an old question but you may try it using the latest version of Forefront Endpoint Protection or System Center Endpoint Protection and let us know if you are able to reproduce the problem. There are many improvements in latest release of SCEP and
FEP.

Hi,
The article KB2919357 indicated that this fix is ONLY viable on the latest FPE build which is 11.0.0727.0.
If you want to fix the issue and have the exactly same errors in the article, you need to install this hotfix.

Does Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 block powershell scripts from running?

Hi all,
I have a task that runs a Powershell script on a set schedule on a particular machine. It has failed to run and I thought 1 of the potential reasons would be that FEP 2010 blocks the Powershell script from being run. Does FEP 2010 do that? If so, where can I find the setting to allow Powershell scripts (or VB scripts or Java scripts) to be run by my task?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Howard Lee - Microsoft

If the script detect as malicious , FEP will block it, otherwise it won't block normal and safe PowerShell scripts. You may take a look at event viewer and see whether it being blocked or detect as malicious code by FEP or not.

Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 updates are not listed as expired

Hello, so I am working on getting the right update groups setup within SCCM2012.
I ran into a bunch of updates for FEP2010 that should be expired, but they are not, how do I expire them?
To be more specific, these are listed as good updates but should be expired in my opinion -
KB2461484 (Definition 1.123.832)
KB2461484 (Definition 1.145.1695)
KB2461484 (Definition 1.155.997)
KB2461484 (Definition 1.175.1328)
The latest definitions update as of today is KB2461484 (Definition 1.191.3456) which is in green which is normal.

Perhaps, somehow, I have no idea how, they were missed is your catalog update process.
See the answer from Lawrence Garvin in this thread:

Defender Showing Hundreds of Needed Definitions After Most Recent Definition Installed
"This is a known issue. It's caused by the limited number of *superseded* updates that can be listed
on the newest update."

SCCM and ForeFront Endpoint Protection point site system role

Thanks for looking at this......I am working with SCCM 2012, and ForeFront Endpoint Protection has been set up as an Endpoint Protection point site system role. Up to now we just haven't had to mess with it much, it just has worked. I
have been busy packaging applications for the eager public. I have one pc that has had the Endpoint client self destruct. Had to remove it via the control panel. I next did a machine policy retrieval and evaluation cycle (among others) and sccm
shows that it is aware that this particular machine needs FEP. It lists it as "To Be Installed". How long will this take? I have things set for "as soon as possible". Am I at the mercy of Sccm? Also, is there
a way to force the install? Thanks for any light you can shed on this!

This will depend on your SCCM client policy settings to allow SCEP installation outside of maintenance windows (if you have any).
It will also depend if you are using 2 hour deployment "randomizer" option in your SCCM client policy.
Lastly, you can install it with BITS that have already been downloaded with SCCM client install.

Forefront Endpoint Protection Monitoring Service

Hello,
I just saw that the Forefront Endpoint Protection Monitoring Service is stoppable. I had a virus a few weeks ago on my machine at home that has security essential installed. The virus continually disabled the service. Does it make sense to control the service
via gpo to not make it stoppable even by the system and admin user?
Cheers
Sebastian
Sebastian Bammer

This is old discussion, but let me explain some improvements in Microsoft Anti-Malware Engine. When a program tried to disable any service, process or anything related to Windows Security or Microsoft Anti-Malware Engine , Firewall, etc. It will be detected
as a suspicious behavior and it will be blocked (no matter whether it is known malware or unknown program). In case of unknown program, you might be asked to send more details or submit it to Microsoft Malware Protection Center.
In addition, in Windows Vista and later version of Windows such as Windows 7, Windows 8.x when you have User Account Control (UAC), all programs run as an standard user unless you grand them permission as administrator. So by default, if a program tried
to disable any Security related service in Windows is unable to that because it won't run as administrator and is unable to perform something which runs as administer unless, if you are in administrator account and UAC is off or you grand administrator privilege
to the program (e.g. right click and run as administrator).
However, if you still face any programs which might try to disable services and it won't block by FEP , Microsoft Security Essentials or other Microsoft Anti-Malware products, you could submit it sample to Microsoft Malware Protection Center for more analysis.

SCCM 2012 R2: Forefront Endpoint protection via automatic updates only work when manually triggering automatic updat rule

Hi,
I followed this manual to configure forefront endpoint protection on clients: http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/6106-using-system-center-2012-configuration-manager-part-6-adding-the-endpoint-protection-role-configure-alerts-and-custom-antimalware-policies/
Now in short: everything works fine ... as long as I trigger the audomatic deployment rules.
Current situation:
1. ADR ran fine (3:30 this night)
2.Software update group is NOT ok
3.I run ADR manually (right click on ADR, run)
4.software update group is ok (green icon)
Then virusupdates are succesfull. This means that clients only update their virus definitions when I manually run the ADR-rule.
I'm missing something here.
Please advise.

Need to detect and remove malicious software on MacBook Pro

How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?

How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?

Acrobat does not support an automated way of doing this directly. You can
remove completely blank pages (pages that don't have any "marking
objects"), but a scanned page does contain an image, so Acrobat won't help
you here. There are a number of 3rd party applications and plug-ins
available. Try a Google search for
remove blank pages from scanned
pdf<http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=removeblankpagesfromscanned+pdf&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8>
This will bring up a few different solutions.
Another way is to use JavaScript to find text. You say that these documents
are OCRed, so if you have a blank page, it should not have any text on it.
With some JavaScript, you can identify pages that don't contain text. This
may however fail if you have a page that contains just e.g. a photographic
image. There won't be any text, but the page is certainly not blank.

I cant play any videos all of a sudden after avg detected and removed a malware....

after avg detected and removed a malware, i cant
watch any videos... i click on a video and it tells
me i need to downlod the latest version of flashplayer....i d
o all that and try a video again and it tells me over and over the same thing!!!!
i downloaded firefox and it works fine...i dont want to go around the probl
em...i want to fix it!

Since you mention Firefox, I assume that the original problem is with Internet Explorer?
If so, check if that malware has the "kill-bit" set for Flash Player: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3432049#3432049
If you find that this "kill-bit" is set in your registry, don't remove it manually (unless you are very confident editing the registry); post back here, and someone will post an easy way to remove that "kill-bit".

Adobe_flashplayer_e2c7b_Setup.dmg Is this malware? If so, how to detect and remove it?

adobe_flashplayer_e2c7b_Setup.dmg
Is this malware? If so, what is the easiest way to detect and remove it?

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.
