SEP sends an email daily with virus detection information, and it's 100% what has already been sorted into the junk folder of Thunderbird. Is there any way SEP can automatically remove the files from the junk folder, rather than just reporting it found them?

Unmanaged clients license expiration
Hello all,
I have a doubt about the license on the unmanged clients. Does anyone know what happens whith the unmanaged clients when the license installed on the SEPM expire? Do they need to be re-created?
My only experience with this issue is with my labs machines, and now if I create an unmanged client with the trial license, the license in the client expire and it doesn.t work fully.
I have a client with mobile employes that can be out of office for up to two years whithout going to the office, which means without connection to the SEPMs to update the license, and they have asked me what will happen with these clients at the end of the year when they have to renew the license. Do they have to connect them to the SEPM (impossible)? do they have to create a new client package when the new license is being deployed, and install it, or everything will work as expected in an unmanged client?
Kind regards,
Juan
Symantec 14MP2 issue with McAfee Encryption Agnet Installation
we are facing issue in Symantec 14MP2 client. This version is preventing McAfee encryption agent installation.
After further trouble shooting I come to know that Application and Device control component is causing issue.
I excluded some below process but issue remain same.
- fcag.exe
- fcags.exe
- fcagswd.exe
- mfefire.exe
- mfemms.exe
- mfevtps.exe
- mfehidin.exe
- macompatsvc.exe
- Create "Folder" exceptions for "All Scans" for the following paths:
- C:\Program Files\Common Files\McAfee\SystemCore\
- C:\Program Files\McAfee\*
- C:\Program Files (x86)\McAfee\*
After this I found one article on Internet https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO95454.html?redirect=false related to sysfer.dll. after adding this exclusion we are able to install McAfee Drive Encryption agent.
Now my query is this Sysfer.dll article is for SEPM 12.1, Still this issue is persist with 14MP1?
And if we add this sysfer.dll in application exclusion are we safe?

Settings changes to Retention Logs revert back after PC reboot
So I have a weird one.
One of my client's offices is using managed clients of SEP 12.
When you click View Logs in the SEP interface of the client version, two of the users PCs only show logs from the past 14 days.
The PC accounts that these two users use are admin accounts.
If you click Change Settings in the SEP interface, they can manually change the Log Retention period, but it reverts back to 14 days after a PC reboot.
The other users are showing logs from the past year.
The PC accounts that these other users use are non-admin accounts.
They cannot click Change Settings in the SEP interface, that function has been locked by the administrator.
On the SEP management server, the policy settings for log retention is 14 days.
I changed the policy settings on SEPM to be 365 days for log retention, but if this doesn't work for keeping logs in the interface past 14 days, I am out of ideas.
I know the lifetime logs can still be found in the SEP installation folder, but my users use the Export Logs function to send the scan logs to their IT security team in their overseas headquarters.
Any suggestions?

SEP v14 causing network adapter issues
We had a user this morning that could not conntect to our network with wi-fi or ethernet. The nework adapters were present in device manger but did now show up in ipconfig. I didn't get the chance to troubleshoot as one of my coworkers found an article elsewhere saying to uninistall SEP, which worked. After looking around in the forums I noticed that there was an issue with SEP v12 and network connections. Has anyone else had the same issue with SEP v14? The users computer is a Dell Latitude E7470 with Intel I219-LM ethernet and Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260 adapters. To prevent this from happening elsewhere I disabled Network Intrusion Prevention.
Database is down
Starting at 8:45 this morning, I've been getting these emails:
Message from:
Server name: XXXXXX

The Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager database has gone down and needs immediate attention.
If I go onto the server and try to log into the SEP manager, I get another error just saying database is down and cannot log in.
How does client locate nearest GUP in multipe Gup config
Hi -
I am trying to create a common LU policy that spans across multiple different linked sites in different geographic regions. I was planning on usuing a policy with Multiple GUP configuration with a GUP defined for each location that needs one. From the docco I get that with this config, the list of available gup's becomes available to all clients.
The question is, how do the clients detect the nearest GUP if the gup itself is not in the same subnet as the clients. For example most of our locations the servers and worstations will be in different subnets, even though they are in the same physical location. So how do the clients detect the nearest gup, (or in this case would they detect a GUP at all and intstead go to the default management server, which may be in a diffent geographic region)
I have a design that has sites spread over several physical geographic locations. the intention is that the clients in the hub site will download from the site SEPM, and clients in other locations would download from a local GUP
thanks
Deleted Thunderbird inbox after SEP full scan
Hi all,
We have installed Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager 14 MP2 in our corporate network. During last night's scheduled full scan, SEP client found a suspicious mails on one of the computers. This morning after we closed SEPs information popup windows, thunderbird suddenly crashed. After the next start of the program, we saw that not all mails are present and after we've checked the file location, found that the inbox file is too small. We realize that this "new" inbox contains only mails from this morning, but not the older ones. There were no records that the old inbox file was deleted in "Risk logs" on the local SEP client. Only in Windows application log we found information that the inbox file was successfully deleted (Security Risk Found! JS.Downloader.D in File: PATH\inbox by: Scheduled scan. Action: Cleaned by Deletion. Action Description: The file was deleted successfully.).
Is there any method so we can restore the old inbox?
Thanks in advance!
Sep 14 MP2 Locations
Hello all,
I am thinking about using quite a lot of different locations on a client due to a specific needs of their infraestructure. I have read a TN (https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH973...), in which says that SYM does not recommends to create more than seven locations per group.
Note: Symantec does not recommend more than seven (7) locations per group when using Location Awareness. Exceeding this number can negatively affect the execution time on how long it takes the Endpoint Protection client to process and ultimately connect to a valid location when it meets all conditions.
In my experience, I have used a maximum of four locations for a group. Does anyone have experience using more than seven locations? Do you really notice the execution time badly affected?
In my environment I do not mind to check the location once per hour or even longer.
Kind regards,
Juan

[SID: 30239] Audit: Unimplemented Trans2 Subcommand attack detected but not blocked
Hi,
we have these IPS messages pop up at some customers System lately:
[SID: 30239] Audit: Unimplemented Trans2 Subcommand attack detected but not blocked. Application path: SYSTEM
The connection goes to Port 445 outbound to different systems, mostly fileservers.
The Systems initiating the connection appear clean with a full scan, powererasor scan and symdiag threat analysis. (Did not check with other tools yet)
Anyone else got these lately? Could maybe be a false positive.
