ABOUT PROTECTION
Protection starts when operation system starts up and is always found in the device's memory. Protection scans all files
that can be opened, saved or executed (including ones located on storage cards), and installed applications.
File scanning is performed as follows:
1. Protection scans every file when the user accesses it.
Protection analyses the file for the presence of malicious objects. Malicious objects are detected by comparison
with the application's anti-virus databases. The anti-virus databases contain descriptions of all currently known
malicious objects, and methods for neutralizing them.
2. According to the file analysis results, the following types of Protection behavior are possible:
If malicious code is detected in a file, Protection performs an action in accordance with the settings (see
"Selecting an action to be performed on detected objects" on page 29);
If no malicious code is discovered in the file, it will be immediately made accessible.
Protection scans the installed application for viruses when it is first started. Protection performs the scan on the basis of
the anti-virus databases. If Protection detects a virus during the scan, it prompts the user to delete the application.
Application scanning is performed as follows:
1. Protection scans the installed application for malicious objects when it is first started.
Protection uses the anti-virus database to perform the scanning procedure according to the selected mode.
2. Based on the scan results, Protection may take the following steps:
If malicious code is revealed during application scanning, Protection will suggest removing that application.
If no malicious code is found during application scan, the application becomes available.
