4. In the Antivirus Settings window, select the Shield tab.
5. Click the switch to turn on or off Active Virus Control.
16.6.3. Adjusting the Active Virus Control protection
If you notice that Active Virus Control detects legitimate applications often, you
should set a more permissive protection level.
To adjust the Active Virus Control protection, follow these steps:
1. Open the Bitdefender window.
2. Click the Settings button on the upper toolbar.
3. In the Settings Overview window, select Antivirus.
4. In the Antivirus Settings window, select the Shield tab.
5. Make sure Active Virus Control is turned on.
6. Drag the slider along the scale to set the desired protection level. Use the
description on the right side of the scale to choose the protection level that better
fits your security needs.
Note
As you set the protection level higher, Active Virus Control will require fewer signs
of malware-like behavior to report a process. This will lead to a higher number of
applications being reported and, at the same time, to an increased likelihood of
false positives (clean applications detected as malicious).
16.6.4. Managing excluded processes
You can configure exclusion rules for trusted applications so that Active Virus Control
does not block them if they perform malware-like actions. Active Virus Control will
continue to monitor excluded applications. If an excluded application is detected
to perform suspicious activities, the event will simply be logged and reported to
Bitdefender Cloud as detection error.
To manage Active Virus Control process exclusions, follow these steps:
1. Open the Bitdefender window.
2. Click the Settings button on the upper toolbar.
3. In the Settings Overview window, select Antivirus.
4. In the Antivirus Settings window, select the Exclusions tab.
5. Click the Excluded processes link. In the window that appears, you can manage
the Active Virus Control process exclusions.
