To ensure that clients stay protected from the latest security risks, update client components regularly. Before updating the clients, check if their update source has the latest components. For information on how to update the typical update source (OfficeScan server), see OfficeScan Server Update.
The following table lists all components that clients store on computers and the components in use when using a particular scan method. The update source for each component is the OfficeScan server or a custom update source.
A Smart Scan Server downloads the Smart Scan Pattern, but this pattern is not distributed to clients. The pattern is used when smart scan clients send scan queries to the Smart Scan Server.
