I understand the risk appetite for having to do the checks on server. There is need for careful handlibg as the system is live. There should be downtime notification as per company maintenance SOP.

Hi All,<br />
<br />
Has any one faced the following: On a particular server, the EICAR file is detected regularly, by an Anti-virus. <br />
<br />
Everyday it gets deleted , but it gets detected again the next day. Unable to locate the file as well. Any thoughts?<br />
<br />
<br />

EICAR File

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.
