Frankly, I need more technical detail on SEP for Sharepoint. Otherwise, it would seem SEP could handle it. If Sharepoint uses a protocol that SEP doesn't handle then I can see the need for this product. It seems similar to Symantec protection engine where files sit on a NAS/SAN, SEP cannot scan these and you need to either purchase this product (for real-time scanning) or configure a system with SEP on it to specfically scan these shares (won't do real-time scanning).
May need to reach out to your Symantec rep. Problem i most of the documentation on SEP for Sharepoint doesn't get into very much technical detail.
I'm not exactly sure on how files make it in to Sharepoint but they appear to do so differently than what SEP does at the file level. The post by ShadowsPapa is informative, but I am still curious why I need a product specifically for SharePoint? Are the uploaded/downloaded files not scanned on a users PC before they are actually put into the SharePoint database? Why would I need a different product to scan those files? I was under the impression that I can configure our SEP12 clients to scan any file that is uploaded or downloaded from client/server OS. We run SEP 12 on all of our workstations and servers now, but we do not have anything that specifically scans files uploaded and downloaded to SharePoint databases. I am specifically looking at this product - is that a totaly separate product than a SEP client on a workstation/server? I am looking for more information on on Symantec Endpoint Protection for SharePoint Servers.
