Auto-Pause

If an On-Demand Scan's progress has not been updated in a certain amount of time, it automatically pauses, which allows the scan to handle issues like rate limiting and unexpected errors. The status is displayed as auto-paused, with the time that it resumes.  

The Auto Pause feature is activated when no substantial progress has been made in the last 30 minutes, either due to rate limits or unexpected errors. In such cases, the system automatically pauses and remains paused for a default duration of 3 hours before resuming. The default duration (3 hours) cannot be configured by users as this is not a global configuration but it can be configured by Skyhigh Security.
