The article seems very straightforward on what needs to be excluded? What else were you looking for regarding file types and processes?

If you let us know which Anti Virus solution you are using I'm sure someone on the forum will have experience of it and be able to advise if there is anything other than the normal exclusions you need to be aware of

hi -

I'm using microsoft System center 2012 Endpoint Production.

the Antivirus engineer requires for add processes & file types.

If a list of all processes is required simply go to Task Manager, click on the processes tab, ensure "Show processes from all users" is ticked then sort by User Name and you will see all the processes the service account is running. Give those to your antivirus engineer and you should be covered for EV specific processes.

This could be a case of your antivirus engineer being over zealous. Try just adding the folder exclusions first and monitor performance.

Is there anything else needed on this issue?

The reason for wanting to know what processes and/or file types are used is because this reduces the risk of a malware attack.  I'm also wanting to know these, too.

Simply excluding an entire directory is bad practice - as malware will lie undetected during On Access Scanning.  If the process is used instead, then we can stop any scanning of files by that process - irrespective of where they are on the server.
