  • 1.  fingerprint file in blacklist mode.

    Posted Oct 30, 2015 01:50 PM

    Hello ,

    is it neccesary to have MD5 of file and file path in fingerprint file used in blacklist mode like :

    0bb018fad1b244b6020a40d7c4eb58b7 c:\dell\openmanage\remind.exe
    35162d98c2b445199fef95e838feae4b c:\dell\pnp\m\co\HSFCI008.dll

    or it will work even without filename and path

    like this:

    0bb018fad1b244b6020a40d7c4eb58b7
    35162d98c2b445199fef95e838feae4b

     

    regards

    AB

    I've always just put in filename without the path. Similar to this article:

    How to utilize SEP 12.1 for Incident Response - PART 2

    Same should hold true for the MD5

    just the fingerprint should work fine if you enter the file path as well, there may be a chance that the file will execute from a different location. Also it is never recommanded to use just the file path to block the files as this rule can be easily by passed by executing the file from a different location.
