How to configure malware scanning?

I have malware scanning enabled in my default network policy.  Is malware scanning configured by adjusting the web content filter policy?

Thanks

  • Hi Jacob,

    Check that the AV services are running. You can check that by navigating through System> Diagnostics> Services> AV. Now go to System > System Services > Web Content Filter > Scanning and define what level of scanning do you require. Sophos XG works in conjunction with Avira and Sophos to do Malware scanning. You can choose either Engine Protection > Web Protection > Malware Protection.

    Finally, simply enable the Malware scanning option in the Firewall rule according to the requirement.

    Thanks
