Weekly Scans in XDR

[Aiman_Fathima]

Hello,

Can we know the drawbacks of performing weekly scans on all endpoints in XDR. Why is it not recommended to perform weekly scan on all endpoints?

Hi @Aiman_Fathima, thank you for writing to live community.

I'm not sure where you were told that there are drawbacks to scanning on a weekly basis.  The scan schedule suggested with Cortex XDR periodic scan is weekly or monthly. 

In terms of determining the optimal scanning frequency - that is something you should decide based on your organizational needs and internal policies.

Hope this helps!
