I guess this is a two part question but mainly wanting to know a little more about the functionality of Live Protection. As the subject line reads: Does Live Protection even look at what exclusions you specify in policy so that we could have a local white list that works in conjunction with SophosLabs.
The question is coming about because we could potentially be searching for a means to throttle the intensity of Live Protection. Due to decreased internet performance EXCLUSIVELY through the proxy.
Second question relates to Live Protections useage with a proxy server. Are there any config options available to have alternate routing for this service where we could route outside of the proxy?
We haven't gone cold turkey with the Live Protection policy off just yet so we don't know anything conclusive as to why we've had bad performance on the internet. What brought attention to sophos was the number of sophosxl.net requests going through the proxy. The interesting thing to me is that I'm just now wondering IF Live Protection is correlated to this, that it might be more of a performance issue than a internet bandwidth issue. If you bypass the proxy you can still get to the internet. Is it possible that the proxy is getting overwhelmed by the number of request made by Live Protection.
