What's the Mac HE scanning interval/frequency?

BartWindrum over 10 years ago

Does Sophos Mac HE have a default and/or user-settable scanning frequency or schedule? I can't find anything in the UI relating to this.

You can set a custom scan and schedule it for the days and time you want. See the scanning video about a minute and a half in...

Thank you. Actually, perusing another thread it appears as if a regular schedule is unnecessary since it scans files in use as they're used. Correct?

Pretty much. The on-access scanner checks files in real time. The on-demand scanner is something you can run from time to time to see if there is anything, shall I say... 'lurking', on the Mac.
