Antivirus log
The Antivirus log records virus incidents in Web, FTP, and email traffic. For example,
when the FortiGate unit detects an infected file, blocks a file type, or blocks an oversized
file or email that is logged, it records an antivirus log. You can also apply filters to
customize what the FortiGate unit logs, which are:
• Viruses – The FortiGate unit logs all virus infections.
• Blocked Files – The FortiGate unit logs all instances of blocked files.
• Oversized Files/Emails – The FortiGate unit logs all instances of files and email
messages exceeding defined thresholds.
• AV Monitor – The FortiGate unit logs all instances of viruses, blocked files, and
oversized files and email. This applies to HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, SMTP, and IM
traffic.
