ActiveAction identifies virus/malware types and provides suggested actions
according to how each type invades a computer system or environment. ActiveAction
categorizes
malicious code, replication, and payload types as viruses/malware. When PortalProtect detects a virus/malware, it takes
the recommended action (clean, quarantine, delete) on the virus/malware type to protect
your
environment's vulnerable points.
If you are not familiar with scan actions or if you are not sure which scan action
is suitable for a certain type of virus/malware, Trend Micro recommends using ActiveAction.
Using ActiveAction provides the following benefits:
-
Time saving and easy to maintain—ActiveAction uses scan
actions recommended by Trend Micro. You do not
have to spend time configuring the scan actions.
-
Updateable scan actions—Virus/malware writers
constantly change the way viruses/malware attack computers. Trend Micro updates ActiveAction settings in
each new pattern file to protect clients against the latest threats and the latest
methods
of virus/malware attacks.
