Anti-Malware (R9.3) - 3 May 2016

New Features

The previous Anti-Malware module has been renamed Anti-Malware (Classic). Upgrading to 9.3 causes agents with Anti-Malware installed to continue to run and be supported in the Anti-Malware (Classic) module just as they were before.

A new Anti-Malware module has been added. To migrate agents from Anti-Malware (Classic) to the new Anti-Malware module

  1. Update agents with Anti-Malware (Classic) installed to agent version 9.3.
  2. Update these same agents to the latest version of MalwareBytes in Anti-Malware (Classic).
  3. Install Anti-Malware (9.3) over these same agents. Once installed, Anti-Malware (Classic) will be disabled for these agents.

The new Anti-Malware module includes profile support for running pre-and-post installation agent procedures.

Anti-Malware has been redesigned in tandem with the Antivirus module. The Profiles page tabs have been reorganized as follows:

User can select one of four different predefined security levels: Low, Recommended, High, and Custom. The Low, Recommended, High security levels provide different combinations of fixed and optional settings. The Custom security level makes every setting optional. The Recommended setting is the default.

Policy Management can manage the installation of the Anti-Malware client and the assignment of Anti-Malware profiles and alert profiles.

A new Settings now enables to you specify Global Exclusions that can be optionally added to any profile. This page also configures profiles as public or private and license alerts.

A new Application Logging page displays a log of Anti-Malware module activity.
