Starting the Vulnerability Scan task using the rights of a different user account

By default, the Vulnerability Scan task is started under the account with which the user is logged into the operating system. However, you may need to start the Vulnerability Scan task under a different user account.

1. Open the application settings window.
2. In the left part of the window, in the Scheduled tasks section, select Vulnerability Scan.

   In the right part of the window, the Vulnerability Scan task settings are displayed.

3. Click the Run mode button.

   This opens the Run mode tab of the Vulnerability Scan window.

4. On the Run mode tab, in the User section, select the Run task as check box.
5. In the Name field, enter the account name of the user whose rights are necessary to start the Vulnerability Scan task.
6. In the Password field, enter the password of the user whose rights are necessary to start the Vulnerability Scan task.
7. Click OK.
8. To save changes, click the Save button.
