What does Endpoint Protection do when connecting to the cloud?

Computers require an Internet connection for the protection to access the cloud. Therefore, if necessary, it is advisable for the administrator to configure the proxy in the Endpoint Protection Web console.

If the proxy is not configured, the protection will try to access the Internet in the following way:

It will try to use the update settings in the Web console.

If these settings do not exist or it is impossible to access the Internet with them, the protection will use the settings established by the user in the local warning displayed (if they have been configured).

If these settings do not exist or it is impossible to access the Internet, a direct connection will be attempted.

If the Internet cannot be directly accessed, the Internet Explorer settings will be used (proxy server and port values configured in the browser).

If the Internet cannot be accessed with these settings and a proxy is configured in Internet Explorer, it will display a dialog box in which you can enter the Proxy.

To try the Internet connection, the protection will carry out an HTTP query to the following URL:

To query the cloud, the protection will access the following URL:
