Whitelist DISCOVER
Last updated
Anti-virus, EDR, and XDR solutions may block, quarantine, or interfere with DISCOVER components during scanning and monitoring. This can affect the reliability of background services, monitoring agents, and other components installed by the DISCOVER Scanning Server.
To prevent interference, add the following directories and executables to your security solution's exclusion or trusted applications list.
Configure these exclusions in your security solution before installing the Scanning Server. Most anti-virus and endpoint security tools allow exclusions to be added before the specified files or directories exist on disk. Applying exclusions after installation may result in components being blocked or quarantined during the installation process itself.
Adding the DISCOVER installation directory and its subdirectories ensures that security tools do not scan or flag DISCOVER components during operation.
C:\Program Files\Guardware\GuardWare DISCOVER
C:\Program Files\Guardware\GuardWare DISCOVER\MIPLabelHandler
The following executables should be added individually if your security solution requires per-file exclusions rather than directory-level exclusions.
GuardWareDiscoverAgent.exe
C:\Program Files\Guardware\GuardWare DISCOVER
GWActiveMon.exe
C:\Program Files\Guardware\GuardWare DISCOVER
