Import Antivirus Database
- CCE will periodically check Comodo servers to see whether a virus database update is available for download.
- Alternatively, you can import the updates from local storage, or from any other computer in your network that uses the same database.
- This can accelerate updates across large networks of endpoints and reduce bandwidth costs.
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 CCE or CIS installed.

Tip: If you are importing the database from your CIS installation, the bases.cav will be available in the folder |
