Scan should be scheduled

Why This Matters

Without a scheduled scan day configured, Microsoft Defender Antivirus may not run regular scans on your devices. This leaves your environment vulnerable to undetected malware that could spread across endpoints. Configuring a scan schedule ensures consistent threat detection and reduces the window of exposure.

What Aether365 Checks

Aether365 verifies that a scheduled scan day is configured in the Microsoft Defender Antivirus policy for your devices. This check appears in your Aether365 dashboard under the Defender security checks category.
