ESET Endpoint Antivirus 7.1.8.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 | ERROR "Real-time file system protection is non-functional"

[avielc 13]

Hi all, 
If anyone runs into that error, I'd really be happy to know what can be done to fix it. 
 

The eea service seems to be running, but the agent is reporting its not working. 

I'll skip to the bottom line. 

Turns out that "secure boot" doesn't mix well with it. 
once disabled it can work, (i noticed something in the debug logs about "kernel lockdown .7? " )

I'd love to hear the Moderators\staff for any info about it. 

Thanks!

Currently Endpoint v7 doesn't support Secure boot but it should in the future (there is no ETA yet).

Thanks Marcos, I needed to have that piece of info to resolve the issue (turning off secure boot on BIOS) 
such an annoying little thing, and I really had to scavenge these logs to find that bit of info about it.

Hi, 
I'm reopening this:
got the following error on a system I made sure secure boot is disabled:
