Updated this week

License editions: To understand the applicable license editions, see Plans & Pricing.

Overview

When you restore data to a device, the Restore Scan feature allows you to scan the data for malicious files and pre-defined file hashes from IOC library. This ensures that the restored data is clean and devoid of viruses and malware. You can scan the data regardless of the restore location.

When Restore Scan is enabled, you will see the Restore Scan section in the Restore to Device window.

  • In the Restore Scan section, toggle the Enable Restore Scan. If the scan is mandated during a data restore activity then you will not be able to disable it. Contact your Druva Cloud administrator for more details.

  • Select the checkbox for Enable Quick Scan to enable quick scan of files. For more information, see Enable Restore Scan.

However, the time taken to restore the data increases when the Restore Scan is enabled. You can view the progress of the scan job from the Jobs page. There is an option to cancel the scan job if you feel it’s taking longer than what you expected and restoring the files is urgent.


❗ Important

  • Restore Scan scan is not available for emails.

  • Restore Scan scan is not supported for files beyond 1 GB in size.

  • If the Allow admins to disable scan or edit quick scan settings under the Cyber Resiliency > Restore Scan Settings > Override Scanning section is NOT selected, you cannot edit or update the Quick Scan settings from the Restore to Device UI for Endpoints.
