For example, you create three separate antivirus policies that define different antivirus file path exclusions.

Statement As outlined in Seton Hall University's Appropriate Use Policy, the University actively monitors the traffic on the campus network and devices connected to the campus network, including activity and traffic originating from off campus, in order to maintain the integrity, reliability and performance of University IT systems.

Policy Any device that connects to the campus network must have a current antivirus installed and running at all times. The antivirus software must be configured to automatically clean and remove an infected file or to quarantine the infected file if automatic cleaning is not possible.

The antivirus software must be configured to automatically update itself on a regular basis. Scans for viruses on the device must occur without user intervention on a regular basis. On systems where this is not possible, users are responsible for regularly initiating the scan and updating the software to protect against the latest threats.
