Once you have created an immediate scan task in the Endpoint Protection Web console, how long does it take for the endpoint to recognize and apply it?

Scan tasks are created from Settings > Profiles > Windows and Linux > Scheduled scans.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click New to go to the Edit profile – New scan job window.

  2. Name: Choose a name for the scan task.

  3. Scan type: Select a scan type (in this case, immediate scan).

Once configured, the immediate scan will take place when the computer connects to the Endpoint Protection server (every 4 hours, at most) and the solution checks that the protection configuration has changed.

The detection report is sent once the immediate scan is complete.
