Scan Schedule

Intrusta currently schedules scans to run every day at 3am. To allow Intrusta to protect your computer to its full extent, we recommend leaving your computer on overnight so that these scans are able to run. If you decide not to leave your computer on, that's fine as well! You can run an on-demand scan of your computer whenever you'd like.
