Firewall application entries in process tab.

Nil


Via the Sophos Enterprise Console v4  for a Firewall policy (v2) I want to add numerous application entries to the process tab, as I want to restrict the running of hidden processes. I problem I have is that I have many tens of exe I need to add, is there way to select multiple entries or even better simply select a folder and allow all executables in that folder to be added.

Otherwise this process is not practical and I will then have to turn of the 'block hidden processes launched by unknown applications’’’’ on the General Tab

If I can add via the client and then import the config this would also be acceptable.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Nil,

    If the process is too long winded then you can always set up a single machine with the firewall in interactive mode, go about using all the applications needed in the work place. When you have all the rules created for the applications your work environment uses.

    Export the configuration from that machine.

    Import that configuration into the firewall policy on the console.

    Set the policy to block by default.

    This will give you a good base point for your configuration. I would advise keeping backups of your firewall configuration policy. Hope that helps.

    That is a good suggestion; I was just hoping that there was a bulk selection or folder section option. I will try the method you have outlined. Thanks
