From McAfee VirusScan 8.8 Managed Client STIG
Part of DTAM100-McAfee VirusScan scan default values
Organizations should use centrally managed antivirus software that is controlled and monitored regularly by antivirus administrators, who are also typically responsible for acquiring, testing, approving, and delivering antivirus signature and software updates through the organizations. Some processes are known to be higher risk while others are low risk. By restricting policy configuration to the Default Processes policy, all processes will be interpreted equally when applying the policy settings, and will provide the highest level of protection. Best practice dictates configuring Low-Risk and/or High-Risk policies only when it is necessary to improve system performance and will focus the scanning where it is most likely to detect malware. There is risk associated with configuring the Low-Risk and/or High-Risk policies for the purpose of specifically excluding processes from scanning, and should only be done after evaluating other policy settings and determining risk.

If the "Configure one scanning policy for all processes" option is not selected, and the use of Low-Risk Processes/High-Risk Processes has not been documented/approved by the IAO/IAM, this is a finding.

If the value is 0 and the use of Low-Risk Processes/High-Risk Processes has not been documented and approved by the IAO/IAM, this is a finding.
