Scans and Client

$
0
0
I do not need a solution (just sharing information)

So we've been using endpoint for over ten years now.  For the past ten years the settings have been set to not allow the user to open the client and also for scans run in the management console to run silently on the client PC.  For some reason now the standard user can go into the start menu and open the client and when I push out a scan to the PC it pops up on their computer. I can't find where these settings are on the manager and I don't remember where they were when we originally set this up.  We are at the newest version of manager and client.  Basically what I want is that when the user clicks on the endpoint shortcut it gives them a message saying only and admin can open it (not exact wording) and that when I push a scan out it doesn't pop up on their computer.  Any help would be appreciated.

Automated Vulnerability Remediation Using ITMS and Control Compliance Suite Vulnerability Manager

Another powerful innovation introduced in IT Management Suite 8.5 is the ability to automate the remediation of vulnerabilities using Symantec Control Compliance Suite Vulnerability Manager (CCSVM) and IT Management Suite together. CCSVM scans for vulnerabilities in your environment and the results are imported into IT Management Suite, which then kicks off the delivery of patches to the endpoints that need to be remediated. You can automate the delivery of these patches such as those considered critical or high risk.

ServiceDesk 8.5 custom data in incident ruleset

I need a solution

Hi,

I have an issue adding custom data to the incident rules within 8.5.

I'm using this article to add the custom integration library: https://www.symantec.com/connect/articles/how-add-custom-data-existing-processes-incident-management-change-management-etc

After uploading the integration library the logs fill with: Error Multiple Automation Libraries declare the Service ID INCIDENT-MGMT

Has the process changed for adding custom data or am I doing something wrong? This was working on 8.1

Cheers,

Rufus

[Virus Help] Kept Having conhost.exe Detection From Different Locations

$

I need a solution

Recently I've been getting repeated SONAR risk detections from SEP about conhost.exe, Risk type Trojan.Gen.2/SONAR.MalTraffic!gen1. The locations change with every detection as well, at first they come from c:\program files\system updates\windows driver system update\conhost.exe, then it started popping up from c:\programdata\performance tool\, which is really weird. Everytime I restart the trojan comes back, but full scans didn't reveal any problem. 

For some reason, I couldn't run SEP in Safe Mode with Networking, the services are stopped and cannot be manually started. I've also been having problems with Symantec Network Access Control not running on start up despite tamper control turned on and the service's property set to automatic.

I restarted my computer just now and I'm staring at a fresh conhost.exe sitting in the performance tools folder, which I know isn't where conhost.exe is supposed to be, but for some reason running a scan on the folder returned nothing.

I am running SEP 14.0 MP1 build 2332 on my personal computer, hopefully I'm in the right place to ask this kind of question.

Monitoring File Changes

$
0
0
I need a solution

I have a requirement to try and monitor changes to a file.  The file in this instance is the "HOSTS" file for any machine on the network (this is c:\windows\system2\drivers\etc\hosts).  This is to simulate a bad actor modifying a HOSTS file to redirect traffic elsewhere.  Symantec A&DC has a pre-built rule that works fine if the file is done from the local machine.  As I discovered today if a bad actor modified a file from a remote location (for example accessing the UNC path of a device on the network) this doesn't work.  Is there a way to detect this?  It seems a little short sighted to monitor a file but not being able to monitor the file if the change was done remotely.  To illustrate this point a bit clearer

Workstation 1 has a monitored file (HOSTS) ==> Local Admin logged into (or running administratively) on Workstation 1 and modifies HOSTS file ==> SEP A&DC will detect and log this event

Workstation 1 has a monitor file (HOSTS) ==> Administrator on Workstation X or Server X (using administrator privileges accesses UNC path of Workstation 1 and modifies HOSTS file ==> SEP A&DC does not detect or log this event.

Is this something that is able to be worked around or should this be configured through something like File Integrity?

SEPM 14 RU2 MP1 reports wrong data from Reports -> Computer Status report

Hi All,

Just FYI

There is again issue with the Computer status report in SEPM 14 RU2 MP1 as we had in previous SEP 14 release:

https://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/scheduled-...

It is the same story, the machines which are showing 0 under Sequence number in Computer Status log are not appearing in the Computer Status report.

@ Symantec - any news? Are you aware of this? Should we use the same workaround as before with the replacement of the php file?

I need a solution

I installed the Symantec Management Console(windows server 2008 R2), and downloaded the agent installation file from the console and installed the agent on virtual machine. (windows 8)

However, I did not have a software update plug-in installed on the symantec management agent ui, so I tried to insstall it using the policy.

However, the agent does not communicate withe the server.

It looks like it could not even find a server. Am I right?

And there is another questionable part.

When called the web interface by url, I thought could be accessed it by ip address, but it accessed the system name.

And I don't know why 401 error also comes out..

Please help me..
