Configure a Virus Scanner

To keep Oracle Analytics virus-free, Oracle highly recommends that you set up the virus scanning servers used by your organization, to scan any files that are uploaded to Oracle Analytics. Once set up, all files are checked. This includes data files that users might upload for analysis, and snapshots that you might upload to restore content or migrate content from another environment.

Oracle supports virus scanners that use the Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP) protocol to communicate.

Note:

Some Oracle Analytics Cloud environments have a built-in virus scanner so you don't need to configure one yourself. If this is the case, you won't see a Virus Scanner link in the Console.

  1. In the Oracle Analytics home page, click Navigator Navigator icon used to display the Navigator, then click Console.
  2. Click Virus Scanner.
  3. Enter the host and port of the virus scanning server.
    For example, my.virus.scanning.serverexample.com.
  4. Click Save.
  5. To remove the current virus scanner configuration, click Delete.
