NanoScan, TotalScan detect more than 2 mln threats

NanoScan and TotalScan, online tools from Panda Security available on the website Infected or Not (http://www.infectedornot.com) now detect more than 2 mln malicious codes. This is the result of the collective intelligence focus on which these two solutions are based, allowing them to continuously update with thousands of new signatures every day. In addition, they have the capacity to detect unknown malware, thanks to the intelligent TruPrevent technologies.

The number of malware strains detected by these tools has increased by one million over the last three months.

“This highlights the current false sense of security among many users, as the number of new malicious code in circulation is greater than ever”, explained Luis Corrons, Technical Director of PandaLabs.

The outstanding detection capacity of NanoScan and TotalScan is due to the use of ‘Anti-malware Collective Intelligence’. This system is based on the collection of information concerning malware from the Internet community and the automated processing of this data in new data centers. This is correlated and leveraged to offer greater detection and improved security for clients.

NanoScan and Totalscan are useful tools for those who want a second opinion about their computer security, as they can detect threats that have slipped past security solutions installed on PCs. Both are compatible with Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers and are available at Infected or Not (http://www.infectedornot.com)
