The Summary Screen

• The summary area is shown by default when you open the application

• It provides an at-a-glance summary of protection and update status

• You can also run a virus scan with a single click from here

To scan individual files for viruses, drag them into the scan area.

The summary screen contains the following information:

1. System Status

The shield icon on the left of the interface is a high visibility indicator of your current protection level. There are four CCS indicators: yellow, green, red and blue.

• Yellow - There are actions you need to take. For example, because you need to run a full scan or because the real-time scanner is switched off.

• Green - All systems are active and running.

• Red - Serious security risks. For example, when the EM agent is not running or a CCS setting is corrupted.

• Blue - Silent mode is active. Alerts are temporarily disabled.
