Know the possibility to set actions on password protected MS Office documents. Example of actions are deleting attachments, quarantine messages, etc.
Although Virus Scan API (VSAPI) 9.7x can recognize password protected Office files, IMSx products currently does not have the option to take action dedicated for password protected Office files.
If you want to set IMSVA to treat password protected Office files in the same way as the password protected zip files, do the following:
-
Set or add the following line in /opt/trend/imss/config/imss.ini file under [general] section:
emgrEnablePwdOfficeFileDetect=yes
-
Restart the IMSVA services using the command below:
#/opt/trend/imss/script/imssctl.sh restart
With this hidden key, IMSVA will treat both password protected office and pdf files in the same way as password protected zip files.
