Antivirus

Description: (je fais une traduction de cet article de Brien Posey, et je lui ajoutes des commentaires plus adaptés à notre approche Française).

Vous vous rappelez avec la version SPS v 1.0, les PB d'anti-virus. Voir sur mon site les solutions SYBARI :

"Antigen est un anti-virus, je l'utilise sur mon propre portail SharePoint Portal Server. Je vous le recommande vivement.

Cette solution pour SharePoint Portal Server v 1.0 est fiable.

Moteur Jet de SPS oblige ce n'était pas simple.

SPS 2 fonctionne avec votre anti-virus, Brient recommande :
ViRobot Advanced Server (http://www.hauriusa.net/virobot_server.htm). In a series of benchmark tests I’ve performed and documented at http://www.brienposey.com/kb/Backing_Up_SharePoint.asp, Hauri’s ViRobot Advanced Server outperformed Norton, McAfee and Trend Micro.

Quoi que vous choisissiez comme solution anti_virus voici la procédure a suivre elle est identique pour toute les solutions de protection :

TRADUCTION A FAIRE :

1) Open SharePoint’s main configuration page (http://servername/_layouts/1033/Default.aspx),

2) then select the Go To SharePoint Portal Server Central Administration link.

3) On the following page, find the Security Configuration section

and

4) click the Configure Anti-Virus Processing link.

This will display the screen shown in Figure A.

TRADUCTION A FAIRE :
SharePoint version 2 integrates with your anti-virus software.

As you can see in the figure, SharePoint offers several mechanisms for protecting your databases. The first two options are check boxes that force a document scan on upload or download. These options should always be selected. It might stand to reason that if a document has been scanned on upload, there is no reason to scan it on download. However, you must remember, new viruses come out all the time, and it sometimes takes the anti-virus products a little time to catch up. Therefore, it’s entirely possible a document could contain a virus your anti-virus software is not aware of yet. If such a document were to be uploaded to the SharePoint database, then there’s a good chance that by the time someone downloads the document, your virus definitions will have been updated and the virus will be caught when the document is scanned just before the download.

The next option is to attempt to clean the infected document. This option is the reason I recommended ViRobot Advanced Server. Norton and McAfee have a nasty tendency to want to quarantine or delete infected files. However, ViRobot can actually repair files infected with most viruses, including Klez, Nimda and Sircam.

The final two options are designed to protect your server’s performance. You can control the scanning timeout threshold, and you can also control how many threads the scanner is allowed to use. The default values are a 300 second timeout and five scanner threads. You’ll usually be OK using the default values, but you can adjust these values to fit your server’s capabilities.
