Hi, Hello, what is the best Scan mode in Kaspersky Internet Security

• Smart Scan
• On access and modification
• On access
• On execution

because, Kaspersky Internet security detect EICAR-TEST-FILE sometimes (once or twice) ?

Hi @Necro PC , 

The default setting (Smart Scan) is the optimal one for majority of the situations and users. You can read the description below and choose another option if needed:

Smart mode. In this mode, File Anti-Virus scans an object based on an analysis of actions taken on the object. For example, when working with a Microsoft Office document, Kaspersky Total Security scans the file the first time it is opened and the last time it is closed. Intermediate operations that overwrite the file do not cause it to be scanned.

On access and modification. In this mode, File Anti-Virus scans objects whenever there is an attempt to open or modify them.

On access. In this mode, File Anti-Virus scans objects only upon an attempt to open them.

On execution. In this mode, File Anti-Virus only scans objects upon an attempt to run them.

 

Kaspersky Internet security detect EICAR-TEST-FILE sometimes

 

What is the scenario (step by step) when eicar test file is not detected? I am asking, so we can check in our environment.

Hello @Necro PC, 

Thank you for posting back!

If KIS is version 21.3, refer: How to find the version number of a Kaspersky application, use KIS, Parental control, Controlling Internet use, How to restrict visits of specific websites or, Microsoft, Set up web and search filters for Family Safety

Thank you🙏,
