About virus scan

A virus scan is a one-time full or custom scan of files on a computer performed by Kaspersky Endpoint Security. Kaspersky Endpoint Security can perform multiple virus scan tasks at the same time.

By default, Kaspersky Endpoint Security creates one predefined virus scan taskā€”full scan. The application scans all objects located on local drives of the computer, as well as all mounted and shared objects that are accessed via the Samba and NFS protocols with the recommended security settings.

Computer CPU will be occupied during a full disk scan. It is recommended to run the full scan task when the business is idle.

Users can create custom virus scan tasks.

By default, Kaspersky Endpoint Security also creates a predefined custom virus scan task.

If the application was restarted by the watchdog or manually by a user during a virus scan run, a task is interrupted. The application logs the OnDemandTaskInterrupted event.
