Adaptive Threat Protection log file names and locations

The activity, error, and debug log files record events that occur on systems with Endpoint Security enabled.

All activity and debug log files are stored in the following default location:

%ProgramData%\McAfee\Endpoint Security\Logs

Each module, feature, or technology places activity or debug logging in a separate file. All modules place error logging in one file, EndpointSecurityPlatform_Errors.log.

Enabling debug logging for any module also enables debug logging for the Common module features, such as Self Protection.

Log files

Module	Feature or technology	File name
Adaptive Threat Protection		AdvancedThreatProtection_Activity.log
		AdvancedThreatProtection_Debug.log
	Dynamic Application Containment	DynamicApplicationContainment_Activity.log
	Dynamic Application Containment	DynamicApplicationContainment_Debug.log
	False positive mitigation	FalsePositiveMitigation_Activity.log
	False positive mitigation	FalsePositiveMitigation_Debug.log
	Enhanced Remediation	EnhancedRemediation_Debug.log
Common	Errors	EndpointSecurityPlatform_Errors.log Contains error logs for all modules.

Tip
Best practice For information on Endpoint Security event messages, see KB85494.

By default, installation log files are stored here:

TEMP\McAfeeLogs, which is the Windows system TEMP folder. (Managed systems)
%TEMP%\McAfeeLogs, which is the Windows user TEMP folder. (Self-managed systems)
