Scheduling

Network Security Task can automatically scan computers or groups of computers at specific times. To do this, you simly create a schedule. Each group or each standalone computer can have one defined schedule.

Creating a schedule

1.	Click on Configuration.

2.	Click on New Schedule.

3.	Select the desired computer. If you select a computer group, then the schedule will apply for all the computers in this group.

4.	Select a schedule type:

Each new process launched on a workstation is checked (on access). If the process is potentially dangerous, this is reported to the management consoleand the administrator is warned.

If you choose this option, Network Security Task Manager then installs a remote agent permanently on the selected computer. The remote agent will only be uninstalled if you choose another option or if you delete the schedule for this computer.

After a computer boots, all the active processes are scanned. In particular you can see new Autostart programs.

At the chosen time and date, the computer is scanned by the management console. To do this, a remote agent is temporarily installed on the selected computer. The agent scans the processes that are active at this time and transmits the encrypted results to the management console. The remote agent is then uninstalled again.

NetTaskTray must be active in the system tray of the task bar, so that a computer can be scanned at the predefined time. Otherwise (for example, when the Network Security Task Manager user is not logged in at the scanning time) a query is displayed when the Network Security Task Manager then starts again, as to whether the scan should now take place.

The computer is scanned by the management console at the set time every day. To do this, a remote agent is temporarily installed on the selected computer. The agent scans the processes that are active at this time and transmits the encrypted results to the management console. The remote agent is then uninstalled again.

The computer is scanned by the management console on the set day every week. To do this, a remote agent is temporarily installed on the selected computer. The agent scans the processes that are active at this time and transmits the encrypted results to the management console. The remote agent is then uninstalled again..

Note

•

If you have defined At the start of a process or After a client boots in the schedule, then file and printer sharing must be enabled on the computer, on which the management console is running. When these two schedules are used, the management console is informed if a potentially dangerous process has been found.

•	If you have defined Daily/Weekly/One-Off in the scheduling, then NetTaskTray must run in a user account that has Admin rights on the computer to be scanned. If not, then the management console must run continuously.
