Anti-Virus Virtual Machine.
One of those, “Gee I wish I invented that” moments, with the Avinti iSolation Server.
“The tool, which is a software package loaded on a dedicated Windows server, typically sits behind the gateway anti-virus scanner and the mail server. As e-mail traffic arrives, iSolation Server inspects each message to determine whether it is capable of carrying a threat. Harmless e-mail such as plain text and nonactive HTML messages are forwarded to the recipient. Any message that could potentially contain malicious code is sent to a virtual machine that is a replica of the recipient’s desktop.
iSolation Server opens each potentially dangerous message‚Äîincluding Zip files‚Äîon the virtual desktop and observes its behavior. Actual virus-infected e-mail messages are quarantined for cleanup or deletion.”
