Location: Policies > SECURITY PROFILES > Security Profiles > Anti-Malware
- Optionally enable the security profile.

Optionally enable cloud scanning.
Enabling cloud scan redirects certain traffic to the Trend Micro protected cloud for further analysis and other traffic on-premises. Disabling cloud scan directs all traffic on-premises.
Cloud Scan redirects IPv4 traffic to the Web Cloud Scan server for malware analysis. The conventional anti-malware scanner scans IPv6 traffic.
- Optionally enable Smart Scan. The conventional anti-malware scanner scans any traffic that Smart Scan cannot scan. Cloud Edge uses conventional scanning if Smart Scan is disabled.
-
Optionally enable Predictive Machine Learning.
If both Smart Scan and Predictive Machine learning are enabled, web traffic will be scanned only by Predictive Machine Learning; the Smart Scan function is ignored.
