• Set the specific information depending on how often you configured the on-demand scan
to run.
The following ePolicy Orchestrator 4.5 display shows these scheduled scan settings configured:
Configuring frequent active user on-demand scans
McAfee suggests configuring specific active user workstation on-demand scans, as opposed to
server on-demand scans. These active user on-demand scans should be run more frequently
than other scans, but since they have limited locations to scan should not impact the users.
These scans only include the following scan locations:
• User profile folder
• Cookies
• Temp folder
• Registry
• Registered files
• Windows folder
These scan locations are frequent targets of malware attacks and should be scanned at least
weekly, or even daily.
