On-access scanning and processes

We have been asked by a system supplier to exclude a list of processes from AV scanning on a server.

We already have a policy affecting this server, which disables on-access scanning (box is unticked).

It's not clear from the GUI if this by default also disables process scanning, or just file system on-access scanning - what I mean is does the original read from the disk when a process launches not get scanned, but it does get scanned once memory-resident?

  • If you've turned off on-access scanning I don't believe you need to worry bout such exclusions.

    Process exclusions are configured for the file system filter driver, i.e. for the files this process reads/writes don't scan them.
