# Endpoint Central – Extended Checks for Screen Lock and Antivirus

### **Overview**

Sprinto’s enhanced integration with **Endpoint Central** now supports automated monitoring of two additional compliance checks:

* **Screen lock** - Verifies that devices automatically lock after a defined period of inactivity.
* **Antivirus** - Detects the presence of recognised antivirus applications on staff devices.

This enhancement reduces the need for manual evidence submission and improves real-time compliance tracking.

This article explains how to configure your ManageEngine account to enable these new checks and how to update the integration in Sprinto.

### **Prerequisites**

Before enabling extended checks, ensure that:

* You have admin access to your ManageEngine account.
* You can create or modify device profiles.
* You have an active ManageEngine integration in Sprinto.

### **Step 1 – Configure Screen Lock Policy in ManageEngine**

Sprinto requires a **passcode policy** with a maximum idle time of 15 minutes or less to pass the screen lock check.

You can either create a **new profile** with the required passcode policy or update an **existing profile**.

#### **To create a new profile:**

1. Sign in to your **ManageEngine** account.
2. On the top navigation bar, select the **three-dot menu** → **Mobile Device Mgmt**.
3. In the left navigation pane, select **Management** → **Profiles**.
4. Select **Create Profile**, then choose the target OS (create separate profiles for Windows and macOS).
5. Enter a profile name and description, and select **Continue**.
6. In the **Passcode Policy** settings:
   * Set **Maximum idle time allowed before auto-lock** to **15 minutes or less**.
7. Save the profile.

#### **To modify an existing profile:**

1. In **ManageEngine**, go to **Management** → **Profiles**.
2. Select the profile that already contains a passcode policy.
3. Edit the **Passcode Policy**.
4. Update **Maximum idle time allowed before auto-lock** to **15 minutes or less**.
5. Save the changes.
6. Repeat this process for both Windows and macOS profiles.

{% hint style="info" %}
The screen lock check will fail if the configured idle time is greater than 15 minutes or if no passcode policy is applied.
{% endhint %}

### **Step 2 – Update the ManageEngine Integration in Sprinto**

After updating your ManageEngine profiles:

1. Sign in to your **Sprinto** account.
2. Navigate to **Settings** → **Integrations** → **Active Integrations**.
3. Search for **ManageEngine** and select **Manage**.
4. Select **Update Connection**.
5. Connect to the same ManageEngine account used previously. Sprinto will refresh the integration and apply the updated settings.

### **How Sprinto Tracks Antivirus**

Sprinto detects antivirus software by scanning the installed applications list returned by ManageEngine’s API.\
A device passes the antivirus check if **any recognised antivirus application** is detected.

Recognised applications include, but are not limited to:

* Microsoft Defender
* CrowdStrike
* Bitdefender
* Sophos
* SentinelOne
* Malwarebytes
* Norton
* Avast / Avira
* McAfee

{% hint style="info" %}
Sprinto currently checks only for the presence of antivirus software, not whether it is actively running.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sprinto.com/monitors/extended-checks-in-mdm-tool-comms/endpoint-central-extended-checks-for-screen-lock-and-antivirus.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
