You can scan Storage objects with the Central Node component using the Anti-Malware Engine and YARA technologies, and with the Sandbox component.

It is recommended to send objects from Storage to be scanned in the following cases:

  • Scanning of objects when placed in Storage had been disabled.
  • Application databases have been updated.
  • An object was manually uploaded to Storage.

To send an object from Storage for scanning:

  1. In the application web interface window, select the Storage section, Files subsection.

    This opens the object table.

  2. Click the object that you want to scan.

    This opens the object details window.

  3. Click Scan.

    The object scan will start.

    After the object scan is complete, its status will be displayed in the object table.

You can also send an object in Storage for scanning by clicking apt_icon_storage_scan in the right part of the object information row in the table of objects placed in Storage.

Users with the Security auditor role cannot scan objects in Storage.
