Enabling SonicWALL Anti-Spyware SonicWALL Anti-Spyware must be globally enabled on your SonicWALL security appliance. Select the Enable Anti-Spyware check box (a checkmark is displayed), and then click Apply. Alert! Checking the Enable Anti-Spyware check box does not automatically start SonicWALL Anti-Spyware protection. You must also select a Prevent All action in the Signature Groups table to activate anti-spyware prevention at the global level on the SonicWALL security appliance, and then specify the interfaces or zones you want to protect. You can also select Detect All for spyware event logging and alerting. Specifying Spyware Danger Level Protection SonicWALL Anti-Spyware allows you to globally manage your network protection against spyware by simply selecting the class of attacks: High Danger Level Spyware, Medium Danger Level Spyware and Low Danger Level Spyware. Selecting the Prevent All and Detect All check boxes for High Danger Level Spyware and Medium Danger Level Spyware in the Signature Groups table, and then clicking Apply protects your network against the most dangerous and disruptive spyware. You can also enable Detect All for spyware logging and alerting. Tip! SonicWALL recommends enabling Prevent All for High Danger Level Spyware and Medium Danger Level Spyware signature groups to provide anti-spyware protection against the most damaging or intrusive spyware applications. You can also enable Detect All for spyware logging and alerting. SonicWALL Anti-Spyware also allows you to configure anti-spyware policies at the category and signature level to provide flexible granularity for tailoring SonicWALL Anti-Spyware protection based on your network environment requirements. If you’re running SonicOS Enhanced, you can apply these custom SonicWALL Anti-Spyware policies to Address Objects, Address Groups, and User Groups, as well as create enforcement schedules. Refer to “Configuring Global, Category, and Signature Level Policies” on page 22 for more information. Page 19
