Advanced DNAScan
The ingenious Quick
Heal DNAScan technology is now enhanced to combine behavioral and

any suspicious behavior, the Behavior Detection System suspends further
activities of the application and prompts user with Allow and Block
options
- If the application is blocked, the application is terminated and its executable is quarantined.
- Behavior Detection System’s options can be configured from Files & Folders – Advance DNAScan.
There are three defined levels of detection that the user can select from, namely:
- High:
Behavior Detection System will closely monitor the behavior of a
running application and will alert if any unusual application behavior
is noticed.
- Moderate: Behavior Detection System will alert if any suspicious activity of a running application is noticed.
- Low: Behavior Detection System will alert only if any malicious activity of a running application is noticed.
