Q. How to virus scan data received from client?
A. (EDDLabs): Two separate scans using different software: (1) on server as data is copied to working set and hashed; and (2) on workstation as individual files are accessed. Infected files are cleaned/repaired and rehashed prior to processing. Repaired file ("child" or "clone") has different hash than infected file ("parent"
or "original"). Infected files failing repair are reported as exceptions.
SVDD: Unpack to stand-alone Unix box and virus scan, creating an infected files report. Create processing corpus that excludes infected files. Before delivery, virus check on stand-alone XP box.
