Description
The quarantine on each system represents a potential danger should the files contained within the quarantine be executed inadvertently. Deleting the quarantine contents on a regular basis will alleviate the ability of malware from being executed. An organization's incident response policy should also contain steps in removing quarantined items after their forensic value has been depleted.
