Engines

To manually trigger update of scan engine and database packages, click on the Update now button.

Engines can be disabled (and re-enabled afterwards) by clicking on the cross button. When an engine is disabled neither the engine nor the corresponding database package is updated. Status of the engine is displayed by green mark sign, red cross sign or grey cross sign meaning the engine is active, not active or disabled accordingly.
