EXAMPLE OF ANTIVIRUS

1. Malware signature antivirus: Malware signature antiviruses detect

malware signatures. These signatures are known digital fingerprints left
behind by the activity of malware or viruses. The antivirus is made to
recognize a list of malware signatures, and once it scans and detects this
signature, it can act against it.
2. System monitoring antivirus: This can monitor unusual computer activity
or behavior similar to a running virus program. It is more flexible than the
malware signature antivirus as it is not limited to known viruses but can also
apprehend new or unregistered activity.
3. Machine learning antivirus: Machine learning antivirus has algorithms
that can track unusual (if enabled) activity and accesses multiple similar
computer systems running a similar antivirus. This keeps the antivirus
abreast of both new and old types of malware.
