Increases in DAT file sizes
The original minimum requirements to use VSE can become outdated because of changes and developments in the field necessary to deal with malware. Over time, DAT signature files have increased considerably in size and can continue to increase because of the ever-evolving malware threats in the field. So, a tipping point of resource availability and resources required to complete an update might be reached. This tipping point can vary from one environment to the next and can be influenced by the tasks or workload of the specific node.
