About Reputation Scan

 

suspicious or vulnerable on your computer using the reputation-based threat detection. Norton 360 lets you run different types of Reputation Scan and detect suspicious programs on your computer.

Reputation Scan filters the files on the basis of certain filtering criteria and performs an Insight Network Scan on the filtered files. Reputation Scan filters the files as reputation files. It filters .exe files, .scr files,

.sys files, .dll files, .drv files, .ocx files, .loc files, and

.msi files and analyzes these files.

When you perform a Reputation Quick Scan or Full System Scan, Norton 360 considers the Files of Interest that are available on your computer.

After it has filtered the reputation files, Norton 360 performs an Insight Network Scan. When Norton 360 performs an Insight Network Scan, it also performs a Computer Scan. Norton 360 uses the Computer Scan to perform the signature-based threat detection. It compares the signature of the filtered reputation files against the known threat signatures to identify threats on your computer. If a security threat is detected, Norton 360 automatically removes the threat from your computer.

Norton 360 uses the Insight Network Scan to detect suspicious or vulnerable files on your computer using the reputation-based threat detection. The Insight Network Scan uses the Cloud technology wherein a remote Symantec server on the Web stores the latest reputation information. It checks the Cloud for the reputation information on the filtered files.

Norton 360 obtains specific information such as file name and hash key about the filtered reputation files and sends this information to the Cloud. The Cloud analyzes the file information and provides a trust level for each file. The Symantec server sends back the reputation information to your computer. If any of the filtered files is suspicious or vulnerable, Norton 360 assigns Bad or Poor trust level. Apart from reputation
