I see that there is two ways to exclude a file extension WHY?
Which of the two ways will give the best results?
We have a number of file extensions that we have to exclude. I will use zzz as an example.
This is all done under On-Access scan settings.
Option 1
under the Extensions tab select the Exclude button to Add Excluded Extensions.
The problem with this option is you don't know if they are really being applied as you don't see the option at the endpoint and you can wildcard versions of the file extension. you can only add zzz. So is it really working??
Option 2
Select the Windows Exclusions Tab.
lots of options here.
Here you can add *.zzz and it will show up at the endpoint under on-access exclusions. You can at least prove that you added it to the exclusion list.
But you can't add *.zz*, but you can add *.zz$
So the big question??? What is the best way to 100% guarantee that zzz gets excluded?
