Executable blocking on a network drive

L2 Linker

Cordial greetings

Team

Currently some users are trying to download an .exe file located in a server directory path.

As I mentioned, the download is using the ms-ds-smbv3 protocol and is being stopped by the File-Blocking profile. We have performed the exclusion by creating a Category url (assuming the download was done by querying a URL) but evidently it did not work, as the location is on a network share c:\server_services_shared_drive.exe.

How could the exclusion of this file only be done, as, I could do an eclusion by signature id 52020 but by doing this I am leaving a very large gap of excluding any .exe and we don't want that.

I look forward to your comments and/or possible solutions.

The directory path is: c:\server_services\shared\buy.exe.
