Malware Scans on Linux Endpoints

Hi Team,

Can you please confirm we can run malware scans on linux servers and linux virtual appliances? We want to create a policy in XDR to run periodic malware scans on the servers (Specially linux servers and linux virtual appliances).

Regards,
Saksham Khurana

Hi @S.Khurana, thanks for reaching us using the Live Community.

Yes, you can schedule periodic scans in Linux and any other operating system. Please check this document under "Linux" sub-menu to check the configuration you need to do in the assigned Malware Profile, this applies to on-prem an virtual Linux instances that have this same profile applied: https://docs-cortex.paloaltonetworks.com/r/Cortex-XDR/Cortex-XDR-Documentation/Set-up-malware-prevention-profiles

If this post answers your question, please mark it as the solution.
