To view and edit the Quarantine, select Quarantine on the Agent context menu. A new window with table that contains Quarantine current state opens.

Quarantine of Dr.Web Antivirus serves for isolation of files that are suspicious as malware.

On each logical drive, where suspicious files are detected, the Quarantine folders are created. Hidden Quarantine folder named DrWeb Quarantine is being created in the root of the disk. User do not have access rights to files of the Quarantine folder.

When infected objects are detected at the removable storage accessible for writing, the DrWeb Quarantine folder will be created on the storage and infected objects will be replaced to this folder.

 

Quarantine files located on a hard disk are encrypted.

Quarantine files located on a removable storage are not encrypted.

 

 

Stations with Quarantine module must be operated by OS, on which the installation of SpIDer Guard G3 is available (see p. System Requirements).

Otherwise, Quarantine will not be able to manage files from the Infected.!!! folder (stored in the installation folder) and information on Quarantine contents will not be sent to the Server.

 

Information on infected objects in Quarantine folder on removable storage is available only from local Quarantine at the station (if removable storage is connected to the computer) and does not available for remote control from the Server.
