Question

After an antivirus server performs filtering, it may ____. a. drop the object b. send the object to the firewall to pass to the destination c. pass the object to the destination directly d. all of the above

Answer 1

The answer is D. The context of the data that is being filtered determines what the antivirus server will do. If the information is corrupted , the server will drop it. Drooping the object will allow the system to not be infected with a virus. If the file is clean it will pass through the firewall onto it's final destination. Again, is the file or object does not contain a virus that was not picked up by the antivirus server it will pass to the destination.
