Additional Information

• Downloading the AV Signature Pack does not enable the AV Scanner and is not a required part of the installation process
  • Installed Windows Sensors will normally begin polling for and installing updates based on Policy settings on the Local Scan tab
• The signature pack is a pre-bundled version of what the sensor initially downloads
  • Newer updates will then be downloaded sensor-side
• The downloadable AV Signature Pack is not regularly updated, and has historically not been updated unless our 3rd party vendor has required it
