Anti Virus
The Challenge
A virus is a malicious program that modifies other hosts files and boot areas to replicate itself into other binaries. Virus is considered to be “in the wild” when it has escaped or been released into the general population. The general population refers to computing environments outside the development environment where the virus was created and tested.
Due the vulnerability of systems or newly launch application, attackers always make use of this loop hole to create malware to target those vulnerabilities. Malwares are introduced everyday and statistic shows that on average there are 53 per day. The challenge now most organization faces is that how to provide fast and accurate anti-virus software that ensures that their production network is cleaned even there is an increasing number of sophisticated malwares that are introduced each day. And also, in spite of several anti-virus softwares’ availability in the market, and all of them keep updating there database for new viruses, still the reliability of an anti-virus is quite questionable.

The Solution
Quantiq International provides CloudAV software that is able to provide an anti-virus solution that able to proactively counter attack virus and able to provide comprehensive protection against malwares.
In other antivirus software a new document or program is scanned with only one virus detector at a time. On the other hand, CloudAV would be capable to dispatch programs or documents to a network cloud where it will make use of a multiple antivirus and behavioral detection simultaneously. It is more comprehensive.

The Benefits
- Complements application whitelisting technology for an effective defense-in depth approach.
- Combines traditional signature-based protection with unique behavioral analysis.
- Prevents known and unknown malicious threats (zero-day exploits) from gaining unauthorized access to systems and data.
- Ensures comprehensive clean-up, including rootkit removal. Least administrative work is required as processes are mostly automated.
