Endpoint Malware Detection Alerts have incorrect time

Recommended Posts

Just curious if anyone can shed some light on the malware alerts. I have checked the time on the client and server and everything is correct so why does it say last detection was at 2:31pm today? It is freakin 9AM!

 

Collection name: All Windows Workstations Multiple malware threshold: 2 Number of machines with multiple malware infections: 2 Last detection time(UTC time): 9/11/2012 2:31:31 PM

Unfortunately this is present in both 2007 and 2012 and it is by design and cannot be changed. You will simply have to +/- the time difference. I know its annoying, but i had the same issue, i wish it reported based on the local time of the hosting server or client that reported back....but it doesnt
