Editing SHA-256 Values in File Lists

You must have the Malware Defense license for this procedure.

You can edit or delete individual SHA-256 values on a file list. Note that you cannot directly edit a source file within the object manager. To make changes, you must first modify your source file directly, delete the copy on the system, then upload the modified source file.

Procedure

1

Choose Objects > Object Management.

2

Click File List.

3

Click Edit (edit icon) next to the clean list or custom detection list where you want to modify a file.

If View (View button) appears instead, the object belongs to an ancestor domain, or you do not have permission to modify the object.

4

You can:

  • Click Edit (edit icon) next to the SHA-256 value you want to change, and modify the SHA-256 or Description values as desired.
  • Click Delete (delete icon) next to the SHA-256 value you want to delete.
5

Click Save to update the file entry in the list.

6

Click Save to save the file list.

What to do next

  • If an active policy references your object, deploy configuration changes.


 

After configuration changes are deployed, the system no longer queries the AMP cloud for files on the list.
