Fix Recommendation

Open the CA API Gateway - Policy Manager and double-click any of the Registered Services that require an alert to be sent when malicious code is detected.

Verify/add the "Scan Using ICAP-Enabled Antivirus" Assertion and the "Send Email Alert".

Configure the "Scan Using ICAP-Enabled Antivirus" Assertion as per organizational requirements.

Position the "Send Email Alert" Assertion after the "ICAP-Enabled Antivirus" Assertion with the results of the response variable set in the "ICAP-Enabled Antivirus" Assertion included in the message body of the "Send Email Alert" Assertion.

Additionally, to avoid receiving emails on all items scanned, configure the policy to only send an email alert upon detection of malicious code within the response of the "ICAP-Enabled AntiVirus" Assertion.
