Virus Pattern |
Security Agents using conventional scan |
The Virus Pattern contains information that helps Security Agents identify the latest virus/malware and mixed threat attacks. Trend Micro creates and releases new versions of the Virus Pattern several times a week, and any time after the discovery of a particularly damaging virus/malware. |
Virus Scan Engine 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
At the heart of all Trend Micro products lies the scan engine, which was originally developed in response to early file-based viruses. The scan engine today is exceptionally sophisticated and capable of detecting different types of viruses and malware. The scan engine also detects controlled viruses that are developed and used for research. Rather than scanning every byte of every file, the engine and pattern file work together to identify the following:
|
Damage Cleanup Template |
Security Agents |
The Damage Cleanup Template is used by the Damage Cleanup Engine to identify Trojan files and processes so the engine can eliminate them. |
Damage Cleanup Engine 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Damage Cleanup Engine scans for and removes Trojans and Trojan processes. |
IntelliTrap Exception Pattern |
Security Agents |
The IntelliTrap Exception Pattern contains a list of "approved" compression files. |
IntelliTrap Pattern |
Security Agents |
The IntelliTrap Pattern detects real-time compression files packed as executable files. |
Smart Feedback Engine (32-bit/64-bit) |
Security Agents |
The engine for sending feedback to the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network. |
Smart Scan Pattern |
Not distributed to Security Agents. This pattern stays in the Smart Scan Server and is used when responding to scan queries received from Security Agents. |
When in smart scan mode, Security Agents use two lightweight patterns that work together to provide the same protection provided by conventional anti-malware and anti-spyware patterns. The Smart Scan Pattern contains majority of the pattern definitions. The Smart Scan Agent Pattern contains all the other pattern definitions not found on the Smart Scan Pattern. The Security Agent scans for security threats using the Smart Scan Agent Pattern. Security Agents that cannot determine the risk of the file during the scan verify the risk by sending a scan query to the Scan Server. The Scan Server verifies the risk using the Smart Scan Pattern. The Security Agent "caches" the scan query result provided by the Scan Server to improve the scan performance. |

Memory Inspection Pattern |
Security Agents |
This technology provides enhanced virus scanning for polymorphic and mutation viruses, and augments virus-pattern-based scans by emulating file execution. The results are then analyzed in a controlled environment for evidence of malicious intent with little impact on system performance. |
Contextual Intelligence Engine 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Contextual Intelligence Engine monitors processes executed by low prevalence files and extracts behavioral features that the Contextual Intelligence Query Handler sends to the Predictive Machine Learning engine for analysis. |
Contextual Intelligence Pattern |
Security Agents |
The Contextual Intelligence Pattern contains a list of "approved" behaviors that are not relevant to any known threats. |
Contextual Intelligence Query Handler 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Contextual Intelligence Query Handler processes the behaviors identified by the Contextual Intelligence Engine and sends the report to the Predictive Machine Learning engine. |
Advanced Threat Scan Engine 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Advanced Threat Scan Engine extracts file features from low prevalence files and sends the the information to the Predictive Machine Learning engine. |
Advanced Threat Correlation Pattern |
Security Agents |
The Advanced Threat Correlation Pattern contains a list of file features that are not relevant to any known threats. |

Spyware/Grayware Scan Engine v.6 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Spyware/Grayware Scan Engine scans for and performs the appropriate scan action on spyware/grayware. |
Spyware/Grayware Pattern v.6 |
Security Agents |
The Spyware/Grayware Pattern identifies spyware/grayware in files and programs, modules in memory, Windows registry and URL shortcuts. |

Behavior Monitoring Core Driver 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
This kernel mode driver monitors system events and passes them to the Behavior Monitoring Core Service for policy enforcement. |
Behavior Monitoring Core Service 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
This user mode service has the following functions:
|
Behavior Monitoring Detection Pattern 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
This pattern contains the rules for detecting suspicious threat behavior. |
Digital Signature Pattern |
Security Agents |
This pattern contains a list of valid digital signatures that are used by the Behavior Monitoring Core Service to determine whether a program responsible for a system event is safe. |
Behavior Monitoring Configuration Pattern |
Security Agents |
The Behavior Monitoring Driver uses this pattern to identify normal system events and exclude them from policy enforcement. |
Memory Scan Trigger Pattern (32/64-bit) |
Security Agents |
The Memory Scan Trigger service executes other scan engines when it detects the process in memory is unpacked. |
Policy Enforcement Pattern |
Security Agents |
The Behavior Monitoring Core Service checks system events against the policies in this pattern. |
Program Inspection Engine 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Program Inspection Engine passes user mode events to the Behavior Monitoring Core Service in asynchronous (ASYNC) mode. |
Program Inspection Monitoring Pattern |
Security Agents |
The Program Inspection Monitoring Pattern monitors and stores inspection points that are used for Behavior Monitoring. |
Damage Recovery Engine 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Damage Recovery Engine receives system events and backup files before suspicious threats can modify files and perform other malicious behavior. This engine also restores the affected files after it receives a file recovery request. |
Damage Recovery Pattern |
Security Agents |
The Damage Recovery Pattern contains policies that are used for monitoring suspicious threat behavior. |

Common Firewall Pattern |
Security Agents |
Like the Virus Pattern, the Common Firewall Pattern helps agents identify virus signatures, unique patterns of bits and bytes that signal the presence of a network virus. |
Common Firewall Driver 32/64-bit |
Security Agents |
The Firewall Driver, in conjunction with the user-defined settings of the firewall, blocks ports during an outbreak. |
