Novel computer virus scanning and killing device

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel computer virus scanning and killing device. The device comprises a virus killing module and a virus scanning engine module; particularly, the virus killing module is arranged in a firmware layer of a computer system; the virus scanning engine module is arranged in a hardware layer of the computer system; the virus scanning engine module is used for carrying out virus scanning on the firmware layer, an operating system layer, an application layer and a network layer in the computer system, and sending virus scanning results to the virus killing module; and the virus killing module is used for carrying out virus killing processing according to the virus scanning results. By the technical scheme provided by the invention, the problem that a virus killing engine is infected is solved, the virus scanning and killing range is enlarged effectively, the scanning and killing efficiency of virus killing software is improved, and the problem that virus of a firmware, particularly referring to a BIOS (Basic Input / Output System), and an operating system kernel can not be scanned and killed by virus killing software is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer virus prevention technology, in particular to a novel computer virus checking and killing device. Background technique [0002] With the increasing popularity of computer applications, computers have penetrated into people's daily life and work. While computers provide convenience for people, the computer viruses that follow have affected the computers themselves and even users to a certain extent. Interests. [0003] A virus or a Trojan horse is a special code. According to its characteristics, in order to effectively curb its harm, anti-virus technology and anti-virus software have gradually been produced. Because viruses have the ability to hide and camouflage, they usually do not break out and are difficult to detect. How to identify viruses is the core problem and difficulty of antivirus technology. The conventional method is to start a set of anti-virus software. The anti-virus software is equipped with a viru...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Existing virus detection and killing devices are still unable to scan the operating system kernel for viruses, and the scope of virus detection and killing is also small, which cannot guarantee the security of the layers below the operating system layer

[0005] In addition, the virus scanning engine is the core of the entire antivirus software. At the same time, the virus scanning engine itself is also a software program, and the software itself has the risk of being infected by viruses.

If the virus scanning engine is infected, it will not be able to effectively play the role of antivirus software
