Detections and responses

When a threat occurs and is detected, what happens next is determined by how VirusScan
Enterprise is configured to respond and which feature detects the threat. Understanding these
differences helps you to develop and implement an effective strategy.

What happens when a detection occurs

When a detection occurs and is detected, the reaction depends on how VirusScan Enterprise
is configured.
If VirusScan Enterprise is configured to clean automatically (the suggested default setting), the
resulting action depends on the cleaning instruction from the DAT file. For example, if the
scanner cannot clean a file, or if the file has been damaged beyond repair, the scanner might
delete the file or take the secondary action, depending on the definition in the DAT file.
When the scanner denies access to files with potential threats, it adds an .mcm extension to
the file name when the file is saved.
