The Smart Scan Agent Pattern is updated
daily and is downloaded by the
OfficeScan clients’ update source
(the
OfficeScan server or a custom
update source). The update source then deploys the pattern to smart scan
clients.

Note
Smart scan clients are OfficeScan clients that
administrators have configured to use File Reputation Services. Clients that do
not use File Reputation Services are called conventional scan clients.
|
Smart scan clients use
the Smart Scan Agent Pattern when scanning for security risks. If
the pattern cannot determine the risk of the file, another pattern,
called Smart Scan Pattern, is leveraged.
