Status Updates with Health Score

Central Management monitors the health status of the Metadefender Core instances and assigns a health score to indicate whether a Metadefender Core installation needs further attention. The health score is determined based on various indicators such as connection status, freshness of the database, product version, and licensing status. The dashboard displays the instances with the lowest health score, providing an easy way to check overall health of Metadefender Core instances.

File and Malware Scanning Statistics

Central management provides statistics on the number of files scanned to date as well as the malware found by all managed Metadefender Core instances.
