At this level, the utility doesn't affect system services. At the high security level, ASET modifies many system files and parameters to minimum access permissions. Most applications should continue to run, but you should test to make sure this is the case. When run at the high security level, ASET also ensures that the system is set up properly to act as a firewall. However, when you set ASET to run at the high security level, your system becomes not only more secure, but also more restrictive in what users can do.
System security takes precedence over system usability.
Even though you can configure ASET to run at three security levels, it won't change the permissions of a file to make it less secure unless you tell ASET to run at low security level. All configuration files for the utility are also under this directory. However, you can configure ASET to use files that reside elsewhere on the network. The seven tasks ASET performs seven tasks. This task sets the permissions on system files to the security level you designate.
