To adjust the real-time protection level:
1. Open Acronis Internet Security, click Options in the upper-right corner of the
window and choose Expert View.
2. Go to Antivirus > Shield.
3. Drag the slider along the scale to set the desired protection level. Use the
description on the right side of the scale to choose the protection level that better
fits your security needs.

In Basic View and Intermediate View, you can configure a shortcut so that you can
access these settings from your dashboard. For more information, please refer to
“My Tools” (p. 16).
