Anti-Virus White Papers
Bitdefender Antivirus Technology
Overview The BitDefender Antivirus System presents a pluggable and distributed architecture that is based on distinct scanning engines for different types of files and malware. Its distinct plug-ins can be loaded on-the-fly, one for each kind of malware, without reconfiguring the whole system or restarting it. Each type of malware is dealt with by a plug-in which can detect and possibly disinfect/clean the given malware type. As an example, the Antispyware modules were integrated into BitDefender 9 Internet Security right alongside the antivirus-specific ones. Plugins function sequentially (i.e. they take turns at checking each file), to detect malware like viruses, worms, trojans, exploits and also spyware. The plugin architecture is such that the plugins can pass messages between themselves.
