Sophos Endpoint Protection

Applies to: Agent version10.0.47390.40

To prevent Interguard from being scanned and detected by Sophos Internet Security, configure the recommended exclusions.  

NOTE: Exclusions may have changed due to updates to the antivirus product or updates to the Veriato Server or Veriato Agent. Please review your existing exclusions, compare them to the lists in this document, and update them as necessary. Keep in mind that the native Windows Security (Microsoft Defender) at the endpoint may also interfere with installation. If you have trouble, submit a ticket to Veriato Support.
