Configuring Scan Settings

Procedure

1. Go to the Configure Policy screen by performing one of the following:
   • Classic Mode: Go to SECURITY AGENTS and select a group. Click → Configure Policy.
   • Advanced Mode: Go to POLICIES → Policy Management. Click Add or click an existing policy.
2. Click Mac.
3. Go to Scan Settings.
4. Under Scan Method, select one of the following:
   • Smart Scan (Recommended): Leverages anti-malware and antispyware signatures stored in-the-cloud
   • Conventional Scan: Leverages anti-malware and antispyware components stored locally on Security Agents

     Important Conventional Scan does not use the Mac Heuristic Pattern to scan for threats. Trend Micro recommends using Smart Scan to ensure protection from threats.

5. Under Real-Time Scan, enable the feature and click Configure Settings.
   For more information, see Configuring Real-Time Scan Settings.
6. Under Scheduled Scan, enable the feature.
7. Specify the scan frequency.

   • Weekly, every <day_of_week>: Scans once a week on the specified day at the specified time
   • Monthly, on day <number>: Scans once a month on the specified day at the specified time

   Important If you select a day that does not exist within a given month (for example, day 30 does not exist in February), the Scheduled Scan occurs on the last day of that month.
