Optimizing file scanning

You can optimize the file scanning that is performed by the File Threat Protection component by reducing the scan time and increasing the operating speed of Kaspersky Endpoint Security. This can be achieved by scanning only new files and those files that have been modified since the previous scan. This mode applies both to simple and to compound files.

You can also enable the use of the iChecker and iSwift technologies that optimize the speed of file scanning by excluding files that have not been modified since the most recent scan.

To optimize file scanning:

  1. In the lower part of the main application window, click the icon_settings button.
  2. In the application settings window, select Protection → Essential Threat Protection → File Threat Protection.
  3. Click the Advanced settings button.
  4. In the Scan optimization section, select the Scan only new and changed files check box.
  5. Save your changes.
