AutoCAD Anti-Virus Protection

AutoCAD Anti‑Virus Protection is a specialized security tool designed to safeguard AutoCAD environments against malware, malicious scripts, and unsafe plug‑ins without slowing down your workflow. It continuously monitors the locations and file types AutoCAD relies on—so threats hidden in LISP routines, VBA macros, startup scripts, or third‑party add‑ons are detected and neutralized before they can affect your projects.

Key features:

• Real‑time scanning of AutoCAD startup paths and Support File Search Path for .lsp, .fas, .vlx, .scr, .dvb, .arx, and related files
• Pre‑open checks for DWG/DXF files to flag embedded scripts, suspicious Xrefs, and unsafe hyperlinks
• Ransomware guard with file‑integrity monitoring and automatic, versioned backups of designated project folders
• One‑click cleanup and quarantine, with safe restoration of acad.lsp/acaddoc.lsp and default profiles
• Signed‑plug‑in enforcement, sandboxing for untrusted add‑ons, and easy whitelist/blacklist management
• Works alongside existing endpoint security; prebuilt exclusion templates reduce false positives
• Centralized logging and alerts (email/Slack/Teams) with optional SIEM export
• Privacy‑first design: local scanning by default; no DWG content leaves your machine unless you opt in to telemetry
• Admin‑friendly deployment with MSI packages, policy templates, and silent updates to signatures and rules

Compatibility and requirements:

• Designed for AutoCAD on Windows (including LT editions); supports common network share setups
• Recommended: Windows 10/11 64‑bit, 8 GB RAM, 200 MB free disk space, internet access for updates

Who it’s for:

• CAD managers and teams who need to protect drawing libraries, maintain uptime, and keep third‑party tools in check without disrupting productivity.
