Omniquad Spyware and Virus Research Centre hosts the latest information about the AntiSpy and AntiVirus database. Information about the latest virus & spyware profiles and definitions/signatures are available here.
Spyware/Virus Statistics: The AntiSpy database is constantly updated by a dedicated team of Spyware Researchers. The team works 24/7 to detect, analyze and generate signatures for the newest spyware/viruses on the block.
The team goes through thousands of reports from the Spyware/virus user network, from websites, from user groups and other sources to identify potential threats. These are then further dissected and analyzed and a new signature/definitions profile is generated. The team also closely monitors existing threats to observe how they mutate and to ensure that their signature profiles are updated to also combat the latest version.
