Adding MD5 hash exclusions to malware protection processing

Prev Next

You can add a list of MD5 hashes you wan to exclude from malware protection processing for all of your host endpoints or select host sets in your environment using the Web UI or the API.

MD5 hash exclusion is only supported on hosts using Trellix Endpoint Security (HX) xAgent version 24 or later.

This section covers the steps for adding MD5 hash exclusions from a malware protection policy using the Web UI. See the Endpoint Security (HX) REST API Guide for information on using the API to manage your malware protection process exclusions.

Important

Excluding MD5 hashes from malware protection processing is not recommended because it restricts the hashes that malware protection scans.
