Update Settings


Click 'More' > 'Preferences' > 'Update'


The update area lets you:
  • Enable or disable automatic virus database updates
  • Choose the host from which updates should be downloaded. Default = https://download.comodo.com.

Configure update settings

  • Open Comodo Client Security
  • Click 'More' > 'Preferences' > 'Update':



  • By default, CCS downloads updates direct from Comodo servers. Alternatively, admins can download updates to a local server first.
  • Individual endpoints can then fetch updates from this local server instead of from Comodo servers. This helps save bandwidth and accelerates updates when a large number of endpoints are involved.

Note: You need to install the 'ESM Update Mirror' utility to download updates to the local server.

  • Download the setup file from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4qKr5xfENWBS0FOUHM2VDFQMnc/view.
  • Run the setup file on a Windows server and follow the wizard to install the application
  • Ensure that the service has started: 
  • 'Run' > Enter 'services.msc' > locate 'Apache2.2' 
  • Click the 'Start' link on the left if the service is not running


Add a host:

  • Click 'Add' and enter the URL or IP address of the host in the next row that appears
  • Repeat the process to add multiple hosts
  • Use 'Move Up' and 'Move Down' buttons to re-order the priority of host
  • CCS for Linux will automatically check the host specified here and download updates from the host even when you are offline
  • Click 'OK' for your settings to take effect.
