ESET File Security
Once ESET File Security is successfully installed, you should become familiar with its
architecture.
The structure of ESET File Security is shown in Figure 4-1. The system is comprised of the
following parts:
CORE
The Core of ESET File Security is the ESETS daemon (esets_daemon). The daemon uses ESETS
API library libesets.so and ESETS loading modules em00X_xx.dat to provide base system tasks
such as scanning, maintenance of the agent daemon processes, maintenance of the samples
submission system, logging, notification, etc. Please refer to the esets_daemon (8) man page
for details.
AGENTS
The purpose of ESETS agent modules is to integrate ESETS with the Linux/BSD/Solaris Server
environment.
UTILITIES
The utility modules provide simple and effective management of the system. They are
responsible for relevant system tasks such as license management, quarantine management,
system setup and update.
CONFIGURATION
Proper configuration is the most important aspect of a smooth-running security system–
the remainder of this chapter is dedicated to explaining all related components. A thorough
understanding of the esets.cfg file (page 6) is also highly recommended, as this file contains
information essential to the configuration of ESET File Security.
