VPM Services & Ports Scan

[Sebastian Siwek]

I've ran VPM scan with W2K3 Vulnerability Scan Definition. How to define services and ports as "secure"? Now, VPM classified all "Services Running" and "Ports - Windows" as "Risk: Warning". I found file C:\Program Files\HP\VPM\Harris\services_custom.txt, where I can define my own services as "Known" in [Add] section. Should I put all services I trust in [Remove] section? And the same with ports and malports_custom.txt file?

Hello Sebastian,

We don't document or support those customizations, but they should work.

Either Harris or HP could change the specific use of these files by VPM in the future, which may or may not conflict with those customizations.

Thanks,
Lucas
