Threats via AV Scanning

Schedule

Title

Comodo Antivirus Scanning

Comodo Antivirus Scanning allows you to schedule

Antivirus scans on your entire server or on specific areas

according to your preferences. You can create a custom

scan profile defining exactly which files and folders are to

be scanned, when they are to be scanned and how they

are to be scanned.

How to Create an Antivirus Scanning Schedule

1. Click the 'Tasks' arrow on the home screen to open the main

Tasks menu

2. In 'General Tasks', click 'Scan'

3. Select 'Custom Scan' then 'More Scan Options'

4. The 'Advanced Settings' interface will be displayed with 'Scans'

panel opened

5. Click the handle at the bottom of the interface then select 'Add'

The scan profile interface will be displayed.

1. Type a name for the profile in the 'Scan Name' text box

2. Click the handle at the bottom of the interface to select items to

be included in the profile:

Choose a Region:

1. Add File - Allows you to add individual files to the profile.

2. Add Folder - Allows you to select entire folders to be included in

the profile.

3.Add Region - Allows you to add pre-defined regions to the profile.

This allows CAVS to 'predict' the existence of new

viruses - even if it is not contained in the current

virus database.

1. Low- Lowest' sensitivity to detecting unknown threats but will also generate the fewest

false positives. This setting combines an extremely high level of security and protection

with a low rate of false positives. Comodo recommends this setting for most users.

2. Medium - Detects unknown threats with greater sensitivity than the 'Low' setting but with

a corresponding rise in the possibility of false positives.

3. High - Highest sensitivity to detecting unknown threats but this also raises the possibility

of more false positives too.

To schedule the scan to run at set intervals, click 'Schedule':
