Endpoint Protection

Hi everybody,

How can i prevent Symantec endpoint security services from being shutdown?I can go to services and stop every service regarding symantec.Is there any way to prevent this?

Hi,

try this:

You can increase corporate security by requiring password protection on the client
computer whenever users perform certain tasks.

You can require the users to type a password when users try to do one of the
following actions:
■ Open the client's user interface.
■ Stop the client.
■ Import and export the security policy.
■ Uninstall the client.
You can modify password protection settings only for the subgroups that do not
inherit from a parent group.
To password-protect the client
1 In the console, click Clients.
2 Under View Clients, select the group for which you want to set up password
protection.
3 On the Policies tab, under Location-independent Policies and Settings, click
General Settings.
4 Click Security Settings.
5 On the Security Settings tab, choose any of the following check boxes:
■ Require a password to open the client user interface
■ Require a password to stop the client service
■ Require a password to import or export a policy
■ Require a password to uninstall the client
6 In the Password text box, type the password.
The password is limited to 15 characters or less.
7 In the Confirm password text box, type the password again.
8 Click OK.

Let me know if you need somethink else,

Hi,

if the previous post is enough for you, please, mark it as solution to close the discussion.

Giuseppe, What you have said will work only if the user is not an administrator. If the user is not an administrator then in any case they can't stop the service.

Yes,

I agree with you, I think anyone knows that is not a good security practice working with the Administrator account.

Cheers,
