  • 1.  Allow Potentially Unwanted Program

    Posted Jan 16, 2018 07:53 PM

    I am having a problem where a Potentially Unwanted Program alert is preventing me using an application.  In this case I do want to use the program.

    How can I allow it?  I'm using Symantec Endpoing Protection Cloud.  The device has been setup as a Personal device.  I have the Symantec Recommended System Policy assigned to it, and a personal policy I created.

    Appreciate the help, thanks.

    Hi,

    Can you create a new security policy with lower settings than the default, apply it, then see if the behavior still occurs?

    You should create a whitelist policy to alow that application.

     

    Using policies in the Symantec Endpoint Protection cloud portal

    A Whitelist policy defines a list of artifacts to exclude from a scan on a device. You can define exclusions from device scans by the following artifacts:

    • Certificate

    • File name

    • Domain

    • Hash

    • Path
