Anti-virus and malicious software detection applications utilize signature definitions in order to identify viruses and other malicious software. These signature definitions need to be constantly updated in order to identify the new threats that are discovered every day. All anti-virus and malware software shall come with an update mechanism that automatically updates these signatures. The organization (including any contractor to the organization) is required to promptly install security-relevant malicious code protection software updates (e.g., anti-virus signature updates and hot fixes). Malicious code includes viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and Spyware. This requirement is specific to applications providing malicious code protection. This requirement is NA for databases. |
