Controlling Virus Infections In Internet And Web Servers A Triz Based Analysis, Umakant Mishra

Umakant Mishra

The viruses not only infect the stand-alone machines or client machines but also infect the web servers. When the web servers are infected with viruses, they disseminate infected content and thereby infect the client computers. The conventional anti-virus programs can run only on one machine. There is no way that an anti-virus in the client machine can determine whether the content of a website is virus safe or not. Hence, different methods are implemented to prevent the client computer from being infected by the infected content of a web server.

One proposed efficient method is to get scanned by the …

Some viruses exploit the features and capabilities of computer networks to spread, operate and damage network environments. For example, the virus may copy itself to other computers in the network or may increase network activities congesting the network traffic. The conventional anti-viruses are not efficient enough to detect and control viruses in a network environment. As they are file based they cannot scan the data while being downloaded from the server.

Most of the drawbacks of conventional scanning are taken care by a firewall-based virus scanning. But this method requires high-end machines to withstand the load of centralized scanning. There …
