Importing Antivirus Database

CCE is configured to periodically check Comodo servers to see whether a virus database update is available for download.

As an alternative to downloading from Comodo servers, you can import the virus database updates from local storage or from any of the other computers in your network that uses the same database. This can help accelerate update deployment across large networks of endpoints and reduce the bandwidth consumption.

Example Scenarios:

• If you also have Comodo Internet Security (CIS) installed and it is configured to regularly receive database updates then you can configure CCE to collect it’s updates from your CIS folder. To do this, you just need to point CCE to the CIS folder that contains the (updated) bases.cav file. See instructions below.

• Similarly, if you are connected to a local network, you can import the updated database from any network folder that contains the latest bases.cav (for example, from another computer that has a (fully updated) CCE or CIS installed)).

To import virus database

• Click Tools > Import Virus Database.

The Windows Open dialog will open.

• Navigate to the folder containing the virus database file like bases.cav and select the file

• Click 'Open'.

The database file will be immediately imported to CCE.
