Hi Mark and Dave (who just beat me to it),

Generally Sophos has been fine. However, I did get the following a couple of weeks ago which Sophos cleared up for me by deleting the relevant files.

"Generic ML PUA detected at C:\CCP4-7-1\7.1\bin\check_cell_sg.exe"
"Generic ML PUA detected at C:\CCP4-7-1\7.1\bin\alt_sg_list.exe"

As a PUA is a Potentially Unwanted Application, I fed back that deletion was a bit extreme. Our IT Team have now hopefully disabled the autodelete for PUAs.

Sophos did also find a (real) issue in one of the CCP4cloud libraries a while back, which the developers solved with an update.

Hi Mark,


Our IT admin has mandated various AntiVirus software on OSX, including Sophos, and I have never encountered a problem installing and downloading CCP4, Phenix, Coot, Chimera , etc etc

HTH,

Dave

Subject: [ccp4bb] EDR (Sophos) and CCP4 compatibility


External Sender: Use caution.


Dear CCP4-ers,

After a hacking scare, in our institution all computers connected to the internet will have to have EDR software installed for safety against hackers. We will get Sophos here, at least on OSX, to be installed directly by IT services, not by ourselves, from an admin account on all our computers controlled by them. Is this compatible with CCP4 installation or should I be resigned to having an off-line computer for CCP4? The other point is that IT services will update the operating systems of those computers from now on, and I worry about major OSX or Linux updates breaking CCP4 and other necessary programs. Any comments and experience with EDR software in general and Sophos in particular is appreciated, both for OSX and Linux.

Saludos cordiales,

Mark
