Data Center Security

In follow up to this thread, I need assistance on the following:

Process Modification Allowed for (W3WP.EXE) on (SYSTEM).

In DCS this cannot be whitelisted event though you use the Wizard to whitelist. the target process name is SYSTEM. no matter how many times you whitelist it keeps popping as block. the performance of the system is very slow - even throuh it is not affecting the function of the process of IIS. when the policy is in audit then the performance is fast and the Process Modification Allowed for W3WP.EXE on (SYSTEM) event disappears- which means this events is not captured in audit . 

There is another issue on DCS 6.5 MP1

When you create a policy 6.0.0 there no remote_file_ps.
events triggered -- cannot be whitelisted, as there is no remote_file_ps. which is strange - i looked back on older policy versions there is a remote_file_ps. but the new policy version does not have remote_file_ps process set.

Remote_file_ps is now able to be assigned to any of the default sandboxes.  

Home > Global Policy Options > Go to very botton of General Settings, and you will see the option of what sandbox you want to send it to.  It offers a litte more flexability than it did before.

Not sure about your first issue.  Have you tried looking into Trivial Policy violations?
