Anti-Bot Protection Mode

By default, the Anti-Bot Default protection mode allows connections while it checks for bots in the background. You can choose to block connections until the threat check is complete.

To configure General Settings:

1. In the Properties of the General Settings Action, select an option from the Select action drop-down menu.

   To create a new action profile, click New, and in the window that opens enter the name and the description and Click OK.

2. Select the default behavior:
   • Background - connections are allowed until threat check is complete
   • Hold - connections are blocked until threat check is complete
3. Hours to suppress logs for same bot protection - To minimize the size of the Anti-Bot logs, actions for the same bot are only logged one time per hour. To change the default log interval, select a number of hours.
4. Days to remove bot reporting after - If a bot does not connect to its command and control server after the selected number of days, the client stops reporting that it is infected.
5. Click OK.
