Description: Enable more advanced configuration and control scenarios for administrators via the command line.
1. Add eShell to Endpoint software.
Details: Adding the text based interface to the Endpoint client software will allow administrators to script the product and remotely access and configure the product without interrupting end user activities.
2. Add WMI classes for interacting (reading/writing settings and configurations) to security products.
Details: Expand upon the existing WMI support by allowing clients to configure security products using WMI/CIM interfaces.
3. Add a powershell module to security products.
Details: Tools that would further allow for configuring, testing, troubleshooting and working with the security products. A powershell module would complement the existing eshell tool and would further enable advanced administration with the tools administrators are using. WMI tooling would allow for other tools to work with security products outside of the small handful of RMM integrations.
----------
Description: Make ecmd more useful.
Add a list/help parameter to ecmd. Something to list all the available commands. For example: -h --help /? /help /list /listcmds
Add a reset configuration parameter. ecmd /resetcfg to reset the product to it's default configuration.
Maybe add a parameter to get the default config as an xml file. Something like ecmd /getdefaultcfg <filename.xml>.
----------
Description: Add profile selection to ecls or add a new command line scanner that uses profiles and outputs to the application's log.
Details: If adding eShell doesn't get added to Endpoint, add a "profile" parameter to the ESET command line scanner program so that users don't have to try to configure the command line scanner to emulate a predefined scanning profile.
Alternatively a new command line scanner that simplifies the ecls experience but also fits nicely with remote management would be nice. Currently ecls has options for specifying where to quarantine/log/load modules which is all very advanced and most people don't need. I think a scanner that uses the same profiles and logs as the main application would be a lot more friendly to end users and administrators.
Example:
> eclods.exe
ESET Command Line On-Demand Scanner
Usage: eclods [SCAN PROFILE] [OPTIONS..] FILES.. [/exclude] FILES..
Scan Profiles:
Profile names should be quoted. Alternatively spaces can be replaced with underscores ( _ ) or dashes ( - ).
Smart scan The Smart scan profile uses Smart Optimization caching, which excludes files that were previously found to be clean.
Context-Menu scan You can start an on-demand scan of any file from the context menu. The Context menu scan profile allows you to define a scan configuration that will be used when you trigger the scan this way. (default)
In-depth scan The In-depth scan profile does not use Smart optimization by default, so no files are excluded from scanning using this profile.
Computer scan This is the default profile used in the standard computer scan in eGUI.
Custom scan profile names can also be specified. Create custom scan profiles in the product graphical user interface.
Options:
/subdir scan subfolders (default)
/no-subdir do not scan subfolders
/log-file=FILE log output to FILE
/log-rewrite overwrite output file (default - append)
/log-console log output to console (default)
/quiet do not output to console
Files:
If no files are specified the profile's predefined targets will be used.
As someone who is a home user and a business user, the fact that buying an Eset license had me covered everywhere was a real big deal.
It was also very easy to convince someone to go ahead with it. Infact i wish your linux server offering did even more things, such as exploit protection and web application firewalling. (This would be really usefull)
You make hands down the most configurable security solution, for example you are the only AV i could even find that has a decently configurable Firewall.
If Microsoft keeps pushing the requirement for a Microsoft account in 22h2 id guess there would be a lot of new Linux users.
Plus its catching on, the userbase is growing, Valve is investing tons of resources into Linux gaming.
I know you might not see a big enough number of installs, but don't neglect to take into account all of us who bought it just incase we might need it. Its a great selling point.
