Damage Cleanup

Security Agents use Damage Cleanup Services to protect clients against Trojan horse programs (or Trojans). To address the threats and nuisances posed by Trojans and other malware, Damage Cleanup Services does the following:

  • Detects and removes live Trojans and other malware applications

  • Kills processes that Trojans and other malware applications create

  • Repairs system files that Trojans and other malware modify

  • Deletes files and applications that Trojans and other malware create

To accomplish these tasks, Damage Cleanup Services makes use of these components:

  • Damage Cleanup Engine: The engine Damage Cleanup Services uses to scan for and remove Trojans and Trojan processes, worms, and spyware.

  • Virus Cleanup Pattern: Used by the Damage Cleanup Engine. This template helps identify Trojans and Trojan processes, worms, and spyware, so the Damage Cleanup Engine can eliminate them.
