EDR Offline Mz Zone


Recommended Posts

hi guys 

I have bought a new version of inspect(EDR) and it is installed in a network that is completely offline and does not have internet. What level of protection does this product have without internet?

Like antivirus, does it need to be updated daily? Or it can be updated offline. Thank you for your explanation

ESET Inspect is intended for environments where the server can communicate with LiveGrid server at least. Without access to LiveGrid, EI would not work effectively as many rules that leverage LiveGrid would not trigger at all.

It is absolutely true. Is it not possible that these rules can be applied offline?(This is a secret network and it is not possible to communicate with other networks.)

There are more than 280 rules that use LiveGrid data for evaluation so these would not work. In the future there should be a local version of LiveGrid that will contain information about files in the local network that might help with evaluation in offline networks.

You also loose the regular EDR rule updates which are delivered to the server through the same mechanism as AV updates are. A new EDR rule module is usually released weekly. Without any internet connection you will receive updates only when upgrading the server with a new release (which can be several months apart).

 

When working within air-gapped networks, your best option is to invest resources into creating custom rules that fit your needs. Which of course is a lot of additional effort, but these are an unfortunate realities when working within such environments.

hi j91321

Is it possible to export the rules from a console that has free access to the Internet and import them into the offline console? is it possible?

Is there a local version of EastLiveGrid for offline networks?

Yes, this is possible by using the Export/Import in Rules list screen.

There is no specific dedicated timeslot, new module is released usually on Monday, it all depends on several factors like the number of changes and their importance. Sometimes new module can be released twice a week.

If you copy over the rules once a month you should be good.

Also the rule updates are distributed over the same mechanism as AV updates so if you already have a working process for that I'd reuse it.
