The data directory is used to store Domino email messages. Repeated scanning of this folder while it is being updated with new messages is not an efficient way to scan locally stored email. Use virus scanning applications such as ScanMail for Domino to handle email viruses. By default, the Domino data directory for a non-partitioned installation is: \ Lotus \ Domino \ Data.

This option is best disabled. If it is enabled, it may create unnecessary network traffic when the end users access remote paths or mapped network drives. It can severely impact the user’s experience. Consider disabling this function if all workstations have OfficeScan client installed and are updated to the latest virus signature.

Web Server log files should be excluded from scanning. By default, IIS logs are saved in:\inetpub\logs\*.log.
Scan exclusion guidelines for Microsoft Lync:
Refer to this Microsoft article: Certain folders may have to be excluded from antivirus scanning when you use a file-level antivirus program in SharePoint.
Because scanning may hinder performance, large databases should not be scanned. Since Microsoft SQL Server databases are dynamic, they exclude the directory and backup folders from the scan list. If it is necessary to scan database files, a scheduled task can be created to scan them during off-peak hours.
Refer to the following article from Microsoft to obtain the advised SQL server exclusion list: How to choose antivirus software to run on computers that are running SQL Server.

Other file extension types that should be added to the exclusion list include large flat and designed files, such as VMWare disk partition. Scanning VMWare partitions while attempting to access them can affect session loading performance and the ability to interact with the virtual machine. Exclusions can be configured for the directory(ies) that contain the Virtual Machines, or by excluding *.vmdk and *.vmem files.
Backup process takes longer to finish when real-time scan is enabled. There are also instances when real-time scan detects an infected file in the volume shadow copy but cannot enforce the scan action because volume shadow copies have read-only access.
You can refer to the Knowledgebase article: Excluding Volume Shadow copies from OfficeScan client real-time scans.
It is also advisable to apply the latest Microsoft patches for the Volume Shadow Copies service. Refer to this Microsoft article: A Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) update package is available for Windows Server 2003.
Refer to the Article provided by Zscaler about Zscaler Client Connector Processes to Allowlist.
For Mac OS users:
Add the following entries to the exclusion list on top of the items provided by Zscaler in their article:
- /Library/Application Support/Zscaler/UPM/db/upm_device_stats.db
- /Library/Application Support/Zscaler/UPM/db/upm_device_stats.db-journal
Make sure the checkbox for Do not scan the directories where Trend Micro products are installed is enabled in WFBS’s Exclusion List settings (Security Settings > Antivirus/Anti-spyware > Exclusions).
Add the .bkf extension to the list of real-time scan exclusions.
To know more about Microsoft's exclusion list, refer to this TechNet article: Microsoft Anti-Virus Exclusion List.
