Viewing details about a vulnerable application

The VulnerabilityProtection window displays the list

of the programs on your computer that are susceptible

to malicious attacks. In addition, you can view details

of the vulnerabilities that a program contains. The

Program Vulnerability Details window displays the

names of the attack signatures that Intrusion

Prevention uses to detect any attempts to exploit the

vulnerabilities in the program.

You can click an attack signature to get additional

information about the signature in the Symantec

Security Response Web site.

The Intrusion Signatures window of Intrusion

Prevention lets you view a list of attack signatures.

Intrusion Prevention relies on this list of attack

signatures to detect and block suspicious activity. You

can uncheck a signature from the list, if you do not

want Norton AntiVirus to monitor the signature. The

Program Vulnerability Details list does not include

any signature that you disable in the Intrusion

Signatures window. By default, all the signatures in

the Intrusion Signatures window are turned on. Unless

you have a good reason to disable a signature, you

should leave the signatures turned on. If you disable a

signature, your computer may be vulnerable to attack.
