Virus Scan has not been performed for a long time [KES for Windows]


This article describes what is considered a Full Scan, which affects the KSC status "Virus Scan has not been performed for a long time".

Scan task area settings

There are two ways to set areas for a Scan task. Tasks started with any other settings (including Quick Scan and Critical Area Scan with default settings) will not be considered as a Full Scan. 

Primary

  • Kernel Memory
  • Running processes and Startup Objects
  • Disk boot sectors
  • Local disk (logical disk where OS is installed)

Alternative

  • Kernel Memory
  • Running processes and Startup Objects
  • Disk boot sectors
  • %systemroot%\
  • %systemroot%\System\
  • %systemroot%\System32\
  • %systemroot%\System32\drivers\
  • %systemroot%\SysWOW64\
  • %systemroot%\SysWOW64\drivers\ 

Path is Case-Sensitive in order to support upcoming Windows features.

Selecting "including subfolders" is not obligatory. 

Successful execution of background scan clears the status of managed host 'not scanned for a long time" in KSC console.
