Add files to safelist by certificate

You can add files to your

CylanceON-PREM

console safelist by certificate, allowing custom software that is properly signed to run without being quarantined by the agent. The timestamp, subject, issuer, and thumbprint information from the certificate is extracted by the console and allows administrators to establish a safelist by signed certificate, as represented by the SHA1 thumbprint.

CylanceON-PREM

does not check if the certificate is expired and does not save or upload the certificate to the console. The certificate timestamp is used to represent when the certificate was created. If the certificate changes, such as it is renewed or replaced, it should be added to the safe list in the management console. The safe list by certificate feature works with PowerShell, ActiveScript, and Office macros.

This feature currently works with
