Apex One (Mac) Security Agents can use one of two scan methods when scanning for security risks. The scan methods are smart scan and conventional scan.
  • Smart Scan
    Security Agents that use smart scan are referred to as smart scan agents in this document. Smart scan agents benefit from local scans and in-the-cloud queries provided by File Reputation Services.
    This is the default scan method type.
  • Conventional Scan
    Agents that do not use smart scan are called conventional scan agents. A conventional scan agent stores all Apex One (Mac) components on the agent endpoint and scans all files locally.
