Abstract
A method, computer system, and a computer program product for scanning a shared resource in a network is provided. The present invention may include, assigning, to a set of active nodes of a network, a list of stored files associated with identifying software signatures in a shared resource of the network in a first scan cycle. The present invention may also include, receiving, from the set of active nodes of the network, a set of software signatures identified in the shared resource of the network, based on the assigned list of stored files. The present invention may further include, in response to at least one performance benchmark value associated with the set of active nodes of the network, adjusting the assigned list of stored files to optimize utilization of the set of active nodes for identifying software signatures in the shared resource in a subsequent scan cycle.
