We receive errors while starting virtual machine on Oracle VirtualBox when DLP Endpoint Agent is installed on a same machine.

The DLP Endpoint Agent is hooking into processes of Oracle Virtual Box (VirtualBox.exe and VboxSVC.exe) as well as into the virtual disk (*.vdi).

Windows 10, Oracle VirtualBox 5.1.28 r 117968 (Qt5.6.2), DLP Endpoint Agent 14.6 and 15.0.

We can whitelist processes and virtual disk of Oracle VirtualBox under Agent Configuration and Application Monitoring to resolve this issue:

1. Log into Enforce console > System Agents > Agent Configuration > Agent Monitoring > Filter by File Properties
