SEPM 12.1 Comprehensive Risk Report - Need clarification on results

  • 1.  SEPM 12.1 Comprehensive Risk Report - Need clarification on results

    Posted Nov 19, 2012 12:59 PM

    Good day,

    I Would like to know how our IT Department should interprete the following categories under the <Risk Distribution by User name> which is part of the <Comprehensive Risk Report> :

    1- System - does it mean a service on the PC was compromised?

    2 - No user name - does it mean the Symantec Central Management Console detected risk on the PC while the user was not authenticated to the network?

    Regards,

    Dave

    1. SEP ran under the SYSTEM account as this has full rights and can act on the virus where a limited admin may not be able to.

    2. Yes, no user was logged in. SEP has the option to run is no user is logged in and act on malware accordingly.
