Antivirus software
A multi-layered cybersecurity solution strategically deployed across various points in an organization’s IT infrastructure. Anti-virus software utilizes an array of techniques to identify and neutralize malicious code associated with viruses before they can cause harm. Its primary functions are to proactively scan for and block virus signatures, heuristically detect virus-like behaviors, and remediate already infected files by repairing, quarantining or removing the malware payloads. This defense-in-depth approach provides comprehensive protection by screening activities, files, and traffic flows at multiple checkpoints across networks, endpoints, servers and other system components.
