Remediation and response

 

In the event of infection, administrators must be able to work in two lines of action: quickly restore affected computers to their original state, and assess the impact of the infection, that is, find out whether there has been a data leak, the extent of the attack, which computers have been compromised, etc. The Remediation and Response phase provides tools for these two scenarios.

 

Remediation

Adaptive Defense 360 provides several remediation tools, some manual and some automatic.

The automatic tools include the traditional disinfection module typical of antivirus solutions, along with the quarantine used to store suspicious and deleted items.

In the case of infections caused by advanced malware or very complex disinfections, administrators have the option to use a standalone disinfection tool developed by Panda Security and available from the management console: Cloud Cleaner.

In addition, you can also use remote access tools to connect to other computers remotely and troubleshoot the issues caused by malware.

 

Response

Administrators have a forensic analysis tool that displays every action taken by malware, including the infection vector (the way the malware entered the network), information about any attempt to spread to other computers or access users' hard disks to steal confidential information, and any connections made to external computers.

Besides, Advanced Visualization Tool provides two additional services: Advanced Reporting Tool and Data Control. Advanced Reporting Tool lets you perform advanced searches and generate charts that will help you interpret the collected data.

Finally, Data Control lets you monitor what personal and confidential information is stored on your computers and what actions are taken on it.
