Scan categories
Custom scans can be enabled for various categories within a security scan such as the antivirus or operating system requirements. When a host is checked for compliance with the security scan and one of the products within a category has a custom scan enabled, the custom scan is also used for hosts with the selected product. For example, if the security scan checks for the existence of AVG Antivirus and a custom scan has been associated with AVG, then hosts with AVG will also be scanned using the custom scan.
Before adding a custom scan to a security scan you must create the custom scan. See Windows or macOS.
