What is "swscan.apple.com" ?

Hi, after updating macOS, it shows "Updates for this Mac are managed by “swscan.apple.com”." I have not seen this before. Can anyone explain what this is and shall I restore to default or is it okay to continue with this?


Regards

What macOS are you currently running?


Are you running Beta software or ever run the Beta software?

Could be a server error...

If you have the option‚ what happens if you "restore defaults?"


What do you see from the Terminal.app copy and paste:

softwareupdate --history


Are you allowing for the security updates ...(?)
