Цитата: Create rules for safe applications
Comodo Firewall trusts the applications if:
• The application/file is included in the Trusted Files list under Defense+ Tasks;
• The application is from a vendor included in the Trusted Software Vendors list under Defense+ Tasks;
• The application is included in the extensive and constantly updated Comodo safelist.
By default, CIS does not automatically create ‘allow’ rules for safe applications. This helps saving the resource usage, simplifies the rules interface by reducing the number of 'Allowed' rules in it, reduces the number of pop-up alerts and is beneficial to beginners who find difficulties in setting up the rules.
Enabling this checkbox instructs CIS to begin learning the behavior of safe applications so that it can automatically generate the 'Allow' rules. These rules are listed in the Network Security Policy > Application Rules interface. The Advanced users can edit/modify the rules as they wish.
Background Note: Prior to version 4.x , CIS would automatically add an allow rule for ‘safe’ files to the rules interface. This allowed advanced users to have granular control over rules but could also lead to a cluttered rules interface. The constant addition of these ‘allow’ rules and the corresponding requirement to learn the behavior of
applications that are already considered ‘safe’ also took a toll on system resources. In version 4.x, ‘allow’ rules for applications considered ‘safe’ are not automatically created – simplifying the rules interface and cutting resource overhead with no loss in security. Advanced users can re-enable this setting if they require the ability to edit rules for safe applications (or, informally, if they preferred the way rules were created in CIS version 3.x). |
