Services

To ensure the service is running smoothly, the Scanner will recheck the files after 12 hours. This process will occur after the installation to ensure that all files are correctly labeled and exposed for scanning.

Files on the server will be scanned one by one, except for those configured by the admin via the portal to be excluded from scanning.

The scanner performs a rescan every 24 hours. This routine check ensures that any updates or changes to the files are detected and reclassified if necessary.
