 While you can start a threat scan at any time with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, your enterprise might benefit from scheduled or timed scans. For example, you can schedule a scan to run at the beginning of every workday or week. 
 
-There are three types of scheduled scans that are configurable: hourly, daily, and weekly scans. Hourly and daily scheduled scans are always run as quick scans, weekly scans can be configured to be either quick or full scans. It is possible to have all three types of scheduled scans at the same time. See the samples below.
