Description
The Cloud Anti-Virus feature introduces an advanced malware scanning solution that compliments and extends the existing Gateway Anti-Virus scanning mechanisms present on Sonic Wall firewalls to counter the continued growth in the number of malware samples in the wild. Cloud Anti-Virus expands the Reassembly Free Deep Packet Inspection engine capabilities by consulting with the datacenter-based malware analysis servers. This approach keeps the foundation of RFDPI-based malware detection by providing a low-latency, real-time solution that is capable of scanning unlimited numbers of files of unlimited size on all protocols that are presently supported without adding any significant incremental processing overhead to the appliances themselves.
