To address potential threats, administrators occasionally need to run an immediate antivirus scan, rather than wait for a scan scheduled by policy. In Ivanti AntiVirus this type of scan is called Scan Now.

A Scan Now can be configured to run on selected endpoints and groups using the quick and convenient Virus and Malware Scan Wizard. Scan results can then be viewed in a centralized location, and appropriate action can be taken to handle any detected viruses or malware.
