Adaptive Defense 360 for CentOS

Post by ragingpanda »

Is Adaptive Defense 360 supported in CentOS 7? I heard it is only supported in CentOS 6. Is that true?

Does it has full features like how it works in Windows?

Hello,

To check minimum requirements for Linus, please red URL:

As of rhow does it work on it, here you have:

Guide for Network Administrators Linux Devices:
140
Introduction
To configure the security profile for a Linux computer, go to the Settings window. Select the profile
that you want to configure from the Profiles panel, and click Windows and Linux from the side menu.
This chapter only covers those settings supported for Linux systems.
General settings
Updates
In the case of Linux computers, it is not possible to perform automatic updates. Therefore, when a
new version of the protection is made available, it has to be manually installed on computers.
Seven days after the release of a version more recent than the protection installed on a Linux
computer, this will appear as "out-of-date" in the Status window. The administrator will then have to
install the new protection on the computer.
Also, in the case of Linux computers, it is not possible to configure the frequency of the automatic
updates of the signature file.
Scheduled scans
Next, we describe the steps to configure a new scan task:
- Click New to go to the Edit profile – New scan job window.
- In the window that opens, enter the following data:
• Name: Choose a name for the scan task.
• Scan type: Select the type of scan that you want to create:
• Immediate scan: Once configured, the immediate scan will take place as soon as the
computer connects to the Adaptive Defense 360 server, and the solution checks that the
protection configuration has changed.
• Scheduled scan: The scan will take place at the time and date you set in Start date and
Start time. Use the drop-down menu to select if the scan start time refers to the Adaptive
Defense 360 server or the user's computer.
• Periodic scan: Set the start date and start time, and select the scan frequency in the
Repetition menu.
• Scan: Select the scan scope:
 The whole computer: Scans all hard disks and USB drives
 Hard disks
 Other items: Use this option to scan specific items (files, folders, etc.). You'll have to
enter the path of the item to scan. The path must start with /
Example: /root/documents
- Click the Advanced settings link to access a new window where you'll be able to configure
additional aspects of the scheduled scan:
• Select the relevant checkbox to scan compressed files.
Guide for Network Administrators
141
• Select the malicious software you want to scan for. The Hacking tools and PUPs and
Viruses options will always be enabled.
• You can scan the entire computer or exclude certain folders or files with specific
extensions from the scans. In the latter case, use the Add, Delete and Clear buttons to
define the list of exclusions.
Alerts
This option is not supported for Linux computers.
Advanced settings
- Installation: On Linux computers, the protection is installed in a default folder that cannot be
changed.
- Connection to Collective Intelligence: On Linux computers it is not possible to disable the
connection to Collective Intelligence. Therefore, as long as a computer is connected to the
Internet, the installed protection will query Collective Intelligence.
- Server connection settings: This option is not available for Linux computers.
- Quarantine settings: The quarantine is not supported for Linux computers
- Administrator password: This option is not available for Linux computers.
Configuring the antivirus protection
The permanent file protection is not supported for Linux computers. Therefore, to protect your Linux
computers you must run on-demand scans or schedule periodic scans.
