Configuring Scheduled Scan Settings

In the Target section, configure the required settings.

Under Files to scan, select from the following:

All scannable files: Includes all scannable files. Unscannable files are password protected files, encrypted files, or files that exceed the user-defined scanning restrictions.

Note

This option provides the maximum security possible. However, scanning every file requires a lot of time and resources and might be redundant in some situations. Therefore, you might want to limit the amount of files the agent includes in the scan.

File types scanned by IntelliScan: Scans files based on true-file type.
Specified files and folders: Manually specify the files or folders to scan based on their paths.

Select Scan compressed files.

In the CPU Usage section, select from the following:

High: No pausing between scans
Low: Pause between file scans if CPU consumption is higher than 20%, and do not pause if 20% or lower

Select the type of action that the Security Agent takes after detecting a security threat.

ActiveAction: Select to use a set of pre-configured scan actions for viruses/malware

For more information, see ActiveAction.
Customized actions: Specify the action that the Security Agent takes on all malware threats
