Question
An engineer must configure Cisco Secure Email Gateway to scan all email from the HR department for viruses. The McAfee scanning engine must be used, and a log entry must be added for messages that are marked Unscannable after a timeout of 45 seconds. These configurations were performed already:

- Create a mail policy for the HR department.
Which two actions must be taken next to meet the requirement? (Choose two.)
Options
- ASet the virus scanning timeout value to 45 seconds.
- BFrom the Message Scanning settings, enable the dropping of attachments.

Explanation
Two additional steps are needed after enabling antivirus scanning and creating the HR policy. First, the virus scanning timeout must be set to 45 seconds (A) - this controls how long the McAfee engine is allowed to attempt scanning before a message is classified as Unscannable due to timeout. Second, enabling the X-IronPort-AV header (C) from Message Scanning settings adds a header to each scanned message recording the antivirus scan result, including an Unscannable designation when applicable - this header serves as the per-message log entry required. Option B (drop attachments) is not required and too aggressive. Option D (Encrypted Message Handling) applies to encrypted messages, not timeout-related unscannable ones. Option E confuses antivirus update timeout with scanning timeout - these are separate values.
