Does Website Protection Website Scanner use bandwidth?
Website Protection Website Scanner's daily scans are extremely thorough, so you might see an increase in the log entries and bandwidth used for your website.
Many factors determine how much bandwidth is used during a scan, such as the size of your website, how many pages you have on your Website, the type of content, and the number of vulnerabilities being scanned for.
The list of vulnerabilities Website Scanner scans for is regularly updated, and any changes you make to your website can also change the amount of bandwidth used during a scan. Monitor your bandwidth on a daily basis to avoid overages from your Web hosting provider.
If your website reporting software allows, you can filter out Website Scanner results using the IP addresses and server names. See From which IP addresses does Website Protection Website Scanner scan? for more information.
