HP Virus Throttle Technology: Stealth Defense Against Malicious Code in Microsoft Windows Environments

Overview This paper describes how HP Virus Throttle technology works to mitigate the replication of fast-spreading worms and viruses that evade anti-virus software. Virus Throttle can detect and slow down the malicious code based on its behavior, giving IT personnel more time to respond to the infection. Virus Throttle represents a different paradigm in the battle against malicious code because it mitigates harm to other systems, rather than focus on the harm already done to an individual machine. Virus Throttle technology is available for servers running Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 Server as part of the ProLiant Essentials Intelligent Networking Pack.
