System Requirements

System architecture
NOD32 for File Servers consists of on-demand and on-access scanning modules. The on-demand scanner performs scanning of the selected file system upon user request via command line. Using standard Linux operating system schedulers, various periodic scanning tasks can be pre-defined. The on-access scanner daemon provides real-time monitoring of the entire file system. File scanning is triggered by user or system events that result in file access calls by the Linux kernel. The file infomation is passed on to the NOD32 scanning engine. Depending on the scanning results a predefined action on the file is triggered. File access can be allowed or denied and the appropriate log output is created.
