About Policy Server for Cisco NAC

bring them into compliance with the organization’s security initiative.
These actions include the following:
• Instruct client computers to update their OfficeScan client components
• Enable Real-time Scan
•Perform Scan Now
• Display a notification message on client computers to inform users of the antivirus 
policy violation
