This function also looks for signs of potential infection, but it’s actually capable of observing suspicious files within a sandboxed environment. Unlike standard antivirus engines, NOD32 also uses advanced heuristics to identify a wide variety of other types of malware, including brand new threats.
By analyzing the files on your computer and files that you download, and looking for similarities to known viruses, it’s able to find infected files and either cut out the malicious code or remove the offending files if less drastic remediation isn’t possible. Like other signature-based antivirus engines, NOD32 uses a database of known virus signatures to identify and root out established threats.
