Hi Claudio,
As of now the customer is checking a registry entry associated with pattern update and are manually updating it once a week. I have suggested the customer to evaluate either of the options
1. As recommended above create a script that can do and edit the local.scv file on scheduled basis
2. Consider adopting the Harmony Basic's Compliance blade which can do this more efficiently. However, the check is currently available for OfficeScan and needs to be checked for ApexOne.
Hope this helps.
