<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have installed McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 5.1.1 and have VirusScan Enterprise 8.8. &nbsp;I have 2 client machines running Windows 2008. &nbsp;I need to run a VBS script on the 2 machines that will send emails periodically throughout the day to an internal address. &nbsp;I need to configure McAfee so that it does not block the VBS from running or blocking the emails from being sent. &nbsp;I'm a bit lost in the McAfee interface.

I have installed McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 5.1.1 and have VirusScan Enterprise 8.8.  I have 2 client machines running Windows 2008.  I need to run a VBS script on the 2 machines that will send emails periodically throughout the day to an internal address.  I need to configure McAfee so that it does not block the VBS from running or blocking the emails from being sent.  I'm a bit lost in the McAfee interface.

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.

OS Security

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.

Anti-Virus Apps

Spyware is software that aims to gather information about a person or organization without their knowledge and that may send such information to another entity without the consumer's consent, or that asserts control over a computer without the consumer's knowledge; it has also come to include programs that engage in various kinds of electronic fraud. Anti-spyware is software that removes or blocks that software; some common vendors include Malwarebytes, McAfee, Spybot-Search and Destroy, Ad-Aware and BitDefender.
