Each of the tasks ASET performs monitors a particular area of system security. In most system environments, all the tasks are necessary to provide balanced security coverage. However, you may decide to eliminate one or more of the tasks.
For example, the firewall task runs at all security levels, but takes action only at the high security level. You may want to run ASET at the high-security level, but do not require firewall protection.
It's possible to set up ASET to run at the high level without the firewall feature by editing the TASKS list of environment variables in the asetenv file. By default, the TASKS list contains all of the ASET tasks. (An example is shown below). To delete a task, remove the task setting from the file. In this case, you would delete the firewall environment variable from the list. The next time ASET runs, the excluded task will not be performed.
