Carbon Black Cloud: Will Signature packs still update if rules are disabled?

[#1]

Environment

• Carbon Black Cloud

Question

When rules are disabled does that prevent Signature packs from updating on sensors?

Answer

Yes. When the sensor is disabled, it will by default, disable sensor-specific features as well. These items include:

• Avira scanning and signature updates
• Canary file deployment
• Background scan
• WSC integration
