Overview: Updating malware signatures and the JavaScript engine
malware signatures and
the JavaScript engineThe BIG-IP system provides an option
for updating
malware signatures and
the JavaScript engine, so that the system can
discover new types of generic malware targeting web sites and mobile apps
, and enhance
protection of your anti-fraud
profile. In the Signatures Update screen, you can
choose to automatically install an update of malware signatures received from the Update server
when it is available, or perform a manual installation from an update file you receive from F5.
In the Engine Updates screen you can choose to download and install
an engine update from the Update server when it is available, or perform a manual installation of
an engine update from an update file you receive from F5.Once daily, the BIG-IP system determines if
malware
signature and
engine updates are available from the Update server. If so, the system
notifies you in the status area of the screen.If you are working with a group of BIG-IP
systems that are in a trust domain and an update is performed on one of the BIG-IP systems in
that group, all the other systems in that group are simultaneously updated as well.
