Anti-Virus Service

Anti-Virus Service provides protection from security threats without slowing down computers due to slow scan times and large footprints. Anti-Virus Service gives you powerful anti-virus, anti-rootkit, firewall and anti-spyware software in-one that protects you against today’s highly complex malware threats.

To enable communication between the computer and Deep Freeze Cloud Services through the firewall, ensure that outbound traffic is permitted on specified ports, and access is allowed on certain domains and IP addresses on both the console and client computer. Refer to Authorized Domains and Ports.

To add Anti-Virus to the Policy, go to Add Policy > Deep Freeze Windows > Anti-Virus > select Enable (install and inherit settings from Faronics Default policy) or Enable (Install and use below settings). Selecting this option installs Anti-Virus on all computers using this Policy.

Selecting Enable (install and inherit settings from Faronics Default policy) or Enable (Install and use below settings) installs Anti-Virus on the computers whenever the computers check-in. The computers check-in based on the heartbeat specified in Cloud Agent Settings.

• Enable (install and inherit settings from Faronics Default policy) – installs the service and inherits settings from the Faronics Default policy. Selecting this option saves time in configuring all the policy settings. Selecting this option makes the settings for the current policy read-only.

• Enable (Install and use below settings) – installs the service and uses custom settings. Selecting this option will allow you to customize the settings for this service in the current policy.

• Disable will not install the service or will uninstall the service from the computers whenever the computers check-in.
