ASM Policy Template for OWA Exchange with Active Sync 2010

Hi, We face a lot of False positives attackes, in te emails body, attachments,... I'm at version 11.5.4 and using OWA Exchange 2010 template, So the question, is there any template for both OWA and Active sync. and if not, how can we avoid these false positive blocks, specially they vary.

  • You will want to read through the deployment guide here:

     

    https://www.f5.com/pdf/deployment-guides/microsoft-exchange-iapp-dg.pdf

     

    The guide mentions activesync, but doesn't go into detail. Note that it does have links to understand Exchange in the same. You will probably have specific questions. Feel free to ask.

     

  • this F5 employee setup some nice templates, among others for exchange + active sync

  • I always experience the same issue when I deploy ASM for OWA 2010 / 2013. Especially for Active-sync.

     

    Anyone has observed the same as a common issue?

      how did you deploy ASM on? the build in templates, external ones, just with policy building?

      I have tried with "Rapid Policy deployment" and one in-house developed ASM template. Result was same for both of the deployments.

      was that in-house template build for OWA or general?

       

      active-sync is a weird kind of traffic which isn't fully HTTP, from a recent case F5 support advised us to ignore everything that goes over the /active-sync URI and has the Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-sync.wbxml header
