Hi Chris,

4 hours is the update interval from Endpoint Client to Endpoint Server.

Endpoint Client will request for Anti Malware update every 4 hrs.

But how frequent the Endpoint Server will send request to Check Point Cloud update server for the downloading the updates like Anti Malware,Anti Bot,Application Control and URL Filtering ?

As far as I know Endpoint Server update interval for Anti-Malware is 30 minutes.
The Endpoint Client is 4 hours by default (but is configurable in the policy)

For anti-bot, App Control and URL Filtering I understand that the endpoint client consults ThreatCloud directly (If offline signatures in the client doesn’t find a match)

Hi Mike,

According to the admin guides it refers to the same but when Endpoint server is updating Anti-Malware signatures from central Malware definition server is not referred anywhere. We have an issue in a client in which we may require to change the update time from 12 noon to midnight but unable to find an option for the same. If someone could advise on the same which can help us.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!
