Global system scan blocklist

Use the system scan blocklist settings to specify absolute paths of files, folders, or complete disk drives to exclude from system scanning for all Linux or Windows agents. To manage the blocklist:

  1. From the Trust Lifecycle Manager main menu, select Account > Settings > System scan.

  2. To add paths to the blocklist:

    1. Enter comma-separated absolute paths in the Paths window on the left. You can enter a mix of Windows and Linux paths.

    2. Select the Add to blocklist button to add the paths you entered to the current blocklist.

  3. To remove paths from the current blocklist on the right:

    • To remove a single path from the blocklist, open the actions (three dots) menu for it and select Delete.

    • To bulk remove multiple paths from the blocklist, use the checkboxes to select the applicable paths, then open the Bulk actions dropdown for one of them and select Delete.

    • To remove all paths from the blocklist, select the Remove all link above the blocklist table.

  4. Select Save to apply the new settings. Paths in the saved blocklist will be skipped for all subsequent system scan runs by any DigiCert agent.

Usage notes:

  • Use the Reset function to reset the system scan blocklist to the default paths for Windows and Linux agents.

  • To download the current blocklist as a CSV file, select the Export link above it.
