App Control: Are trusted directories crawled for Linux or MacOS agents?

Environment

  • App Control agent: All versions
  • Linux: All supported versions
  • MacOS: All supported versions

Question

Is there an option to crawl the contents of a trusted directory for Linux or MacOS agents as Windows trusted directories do?

Answer

  • Linux and MacOS agent trusted directories do not crawl the contents of the trusted directories
  • Any archive files added to a configured trusted directory for a MacOS or Linux endpoint would need to be expanded manually to have the contents analysed.
  • This is also explained in more detail in the user guide

Additional Notes

If there is interest for crawl options in future Linux or MacOS agent versions, please share this via Voice of the Customer.
