application databases. The databases contain descriptions of all the malicious objects known to date and methods for
neutralizing them. If malicious code was detected in the file, Kaspersky Mobile Security blocks the file and performs an
action in accordance with the settings.
A scan can be launched manually or according to the schedule.
Information about the results of the on-demand scan is saved to the program log (see section “Program logs” on page
77).
