General Settings

On this page you can manage the following parameters of SpIDer Guard on the protected station:

Enable SpIDer Guard for Linux — enables or disables SpIDer Guard on the protected station.

Use heuristic analysis — instructs SpIDer Guard to use the heuristic analysis on the protected station when checking the files "on the fly". Note that heuristic analysis slows down the file system monitoring but improves its reliability.

Scanning time of one element — restrictions on maximal time spent on scanning of one file by SpIDer Guard on the station. If the value is set to 0,  the time for scanning is not limited.

info

SpIDer Guard, the file system monitor, can operate in one of the following modes:

FANOTIFY—using the fanotify monitoring interface (not all GNU/Linux-based OSes support fanotify)

LKM—using the loadable Linux kernel module (compatible with any GNU/Linux-based OS with kernel 2.6.x and newer)

By default, the file system monitor automatically chooses the appropriate operation mode according to the environment. If SpIDer Guard cannot be started, build and install a loadable kernel module by using the supplied source codes.
