We are about to move to on-access scanning in 2 weeks. The powers that be have a concern that if a file is infected it may be deleted as a method of "cleaning" it. They want to leave the file where it is and to deny access, even if it's infected.
I have tested with the following settings: scanning set to enable on-acces scanning for this computer - check files on read, rename and write.
When I tested with the eicar test file, it was deleted whether or not I set the clean-up to clean automattically (and to do the deny access only option) or not. I am trying to avoid the deletion of files.
Has anyone successfully setup on-access scanning to not delete any files, even if it's infected? I know that this can be done with scheduled scans because we are currently doing it.
Thanks!
