Updating Anti-Virus Databases

Doctor Web products use virus databases to detect malicious software. These databases contain details and signatures for all currently known viruses and malicious programs. The Dr.Web for Kerio Control application gets updates of virus databases online from the Doctor Web update servers. During the licensed period, Doctor Web provides you with regular updates to virus databases and application components, if available.

The special component Dr.Web Updater is used to automatically update virus databases. This plug-in is a part of Dr.Web for Kerio Control and can be installed from the drweb-update package.

Upon startup of the operating system, the configuration management daemon (drweb-configd) will automatically launch the updater. Dr.Web Updater checks for available updates every 30 minutes to download and install them upon detection.
