16.5. Managing quarantined files
Bitdefender isolates the malware-infected files it cannot disinfect and the suspicious
files in a secure area named quarantine. When a virus is in quarantine it cannot do
any harm because it cannot be executed or read.
By default, quarantined files are automatically sent to Bitdefender Labs in order to
be analyzed by the Bitdefender malware researchers. If malware presence is
confirmed, a signature is released to allow removing the malware.
