This policy setting defines processes from which outbound network traffic will not be inspected. Process names should be added under the Options for this setting. Each entry must be listed as a name value pair, where the name should be a string representation of a process path and name. As an example, a process might be defined as: "C:\Windows\System32\App.exe" . The value is not used and it is recommended that this be set to 0. Counter Measure: Configure this setting depending on your organization's requirements. Potential Impact: The processes will be inspected and could impact performance.
