To update the Pattern Files of the Security Server if it does not have Internet connection:
- To disable globally: Administration > Global Settings > Desktop/Server > Under General Scan Settings, disable Smart Scan Service.
- To disable per specific group: Devices > Select a group > Configure Policy > Scan Method > Conventional Scan.
- Go to another machine with an internet connection.
