Configuring browser cache

You configure the browser cache settings when you want the system to identify the malware type that you are defining by means of resources in the client's web browser that can be loaded from the malware.
  1. On the Main tab, click
    Security
    Fraud Protection Service
    Anti-Fraud Profiles
    .
    The Anti-Fraud Profiles screen opens.
  2. From the list of profiles, select the relevant profile.
    The Anti-Fraud Profile Properties screen opens.
  3. In the Anti-Fraud Configuration area, click
    Malware Detection
    Malware List
    .
    The list of user-defined malware types is displayed.
  4. In the Malware List, click the malware type on which you want to configure browser cache, or click
    Add
    to add a new malware type.
    If you click
    Add
    to add a new malware type, you should first assign a name to the malware type in the General Settings area before proceeding to the next step.
    The Malware Properties screen appears.
  5. In the Malware Configuration area, select
    Browser Cache
    .
    The browser cache settings appear.
  6. In the
    Non-existent resources
    field, add a non-existent URL.
    The system uses this URL for testing purposes. If the client's browser can access this URL, then it is not possible to know for sure that the client is infected with malware, even if the malware can load the resources added in the
    Resources that are loaded by the malware
    field.
  7. In the
    Resources that are loaded by the malware
    field, add resources that you know can be loaded by the malware you are defining.
  8. Click
    Save
    .
    The Browser Cache settings are saved.
If the system detects in the client's web browser a loaded resource that you added at step 7 and the client's web browser cannot access any of the URLs that you added at step 6, it generates an alert.
