Scan Caching

Scan Caching improves the efficiency of on-demand scans performed by the Virtual Appliance. It eliminates the unnecessary scanning of identical content across multiple VMs in large VMware deployments.

In addition,

• Integrity Monitoring scan caching speeds up Integrity Monitoring scans by sharing Integrity Monitoring scan results.

• Anti-Malware on-demand caching speeds up scans on subsequent cloned/similar VMs

• Anti-Malware Real-time caching speeds up VM boot and application access time

• Concurrent Scan feature allows further overall scan time improvement by allowing multiple VMs to be scanned concurrently

In the next blog we can see the VMtools installation with vShield Endpoint driver installation .

    HI,
    I’m wondering if is it possible to have a hierachy of exclusion files in Deep Security ? for instance you want to exclude C:\temp in every servers and exclude C:\SQLDATA in every MSSQL Server. Thanks for your blog

    Good Article.. When Trend is synced with Vcenter. Is there a way to exclude a folder of VM’s. So they do not get scanned?
