System architecture |
| |
|
NOD32 for LFS consists of on-demand and on-access
scanning modules. The on-demand scanner performs scanning of the
selected file system upon user request via command line. Using standard
Linux operating system schedulers, various periodic scanning tasks can
be pre-defined. The on-access scanner daemon provides real-time
monitoring of the entire file system. File scanning is triggered by user
or system events that result in file access calls by the Linux kernel.
The file infomation is passed on to the NOD32 scanning engine. Depending
on the scanning results a predefined action on the file is triggered.
File access can be allowed or denied and the appropriate log output is
created. |

2.70.1
- nod32d - Added support for scanning of unwanted
applications.
- nod32d - Added functionality to update and reload anti-virus
modules.
- Added possibility to define scanner parameters individually
according to the client/server identification.
- Added possibility to define update parameters via main
configuration file.
- More evaluated product installation mechanism. The
installation package does not contain NOD32 modules any more.
These are downloaded during the product first initialization
stage, if necessary. The package installation process is more
user friendly now.
- nod32d - Enhancement of the license expiration warning
functionality.
The mechanism does not block the scanned objects processing
after license expiration, only deactivates the anti-virus
scanning functionality and starts
sending the expiration report notification about scanner
deactivation to system administrator.
- Command line interface testing functionality of NOD32 agent
modules is fully replaced by the testing functionality using
agent identification parameter 'aid'.
- Major changes in documentation.
|
| |

|
| |
2.52.2
- Better system coordination based on maintenance of all
resident agent modules services by using main system daemon
'nod32d' (Start of resident agent modules is controlled by
parameters 'agent_enabled' of the main NOD32 configuration
file.)
- Implementation of so called actions policy in 'on-access'
scanner, i.e. possibility to define a variety of actions
depending on the scanning result.
- Unified logging system of all the modules.
- Implementation of nod32set module to provide comfortable
modifications of NOD32 configuration file.
- Update of the product documentation (changed structure, new
information).
- End of the product development for FreeBSD OS version 4.X.
(technical support stays for NOD32BFS 2.51.x). The reason is
insufficient support of libc.so.4 library used in FreeBSD OS
version 4.x.
