Solving Virus Problems by Anti-Virus Developers- A TRIZ Perspective

Author: Umakant Mishra
Abstract:
The anti-virus developers play a very significant role in dealing with the computer viruses. They analyze the problems of different levels of users and find solutions for each of those problems. Their goal is not just to sell the product and make profit out of it. They undertake much greater responsibility to ensure that their product meets the expectations of the users and deals with the viruses efficiently.

Different levels of users dealing with computer face different types of problems. The developer must ensure that the product meets the needs of various levels of users and network administrators. The developer has to employ various strategies to overcome the limitations of signature scanning, heuristic scanning and other methods and ensure speed and efficiency of virus scanning without leading to any false positives or false negatives.
