DNAScan
DNAScan is Quick Heal’s indigenous technology to detect and eliminate new and unknown malicious threats in the system.
Additionally it copies the suspected file in the Quarantine directory before taking any action. Quarantined suspicious files can be
submitted to our research lab for further analysis. This submission is important to curb the wild spread of new malicious threats.
Suspicious file submission ensures the detailed analysis of the file in our research lab. After the detailed analysis it can be added in
the known threat signature database which will be provided in updates to all the users. This can be only possible if they are
detected and eliminated before their wild spread. DNAScan technology successfully traps suspected files with very less false alarms.
Whenever DNAScan detects a new malicious threat in your system it informs you, or asks for your action during memory scanning if
the scanning is set with Prompt settings. One copy of DNAScan suspected files will always be quarantined which can later be
submitted to research lab for further detailed analysis. The submission can be done automatically or manually through email. The
submission takes place whenever Quick Heal Total Security updates itself and finds new DNAScan suspected files in the Quarantine
folder. It sends new DNAScan suspicious quarantined files in an encrypted file format to Quick Heal research lab.
DNAScan feature in Quick Heal Total Security can be accessed by clicking Files & Folders from the
Dashboard . By default
DNAScan is enabled and is set to ON. You can disable DNAScan by clicking the button. Quick Heal recommends that you keep it
enabled to secure your system from any potential threats at any point of time.
IF DNAScan Protection is disabled then it will remain disabled during Scan, Virus Protection and Email Scans.
