Administrator Notification
Send a message when the data leakage is detected—Depending on what InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance has been configured to block, this option can result in a large number of notification messages sent to the default recipient.
As an alternative to item-by-item notifications, bear in mind that blocked files are written to log, and can be included in one of the IWSVA generated reports.
Tip
Tip
Have notifications sent to a dedicated email account rather than your personal account to reduce the number of messages received. Alternatively, you may want to set up an email rule to process IWSVA messages.
User Notification Message
Whenever InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance detects a virus or other Internet threat in client FTP traffic—uploads and downloads—users will be notified at their FTP command prompt. If the user is using a FTP client, the message is displayed using whatever method the client software provides for session text.
You can append a custom message to the IWSVA default by selecting both the Default and Customized options.
