ActiveAction identifies
virus/malware types and recommends actions based on how each type
invades a computer system or environment. ActiveAction categorizes
malicious code, replication, and payload types as viruses/malware. When
a scan detects a virus or malware threat, it takes the recommended
action on the virus/malware type to protect the environment's vulnerable
points.
