Antivirus Update Check

The Antivirus Update Check queries the installed antivirus pattern file on the device and compares this with the latest release reported by the vendor. Where the pattern file is older than the configured threshold value the Check reports as failed and an Alert generated.

You can suppress check alerts until the Check failures exceed a configured number of consecutive failures. For more information, see Configure alert thresholds to suppress alerts.
