AVG behavioural engineThe AVG behavioural engine is a different kind of protectionthat goes way beyond typical anti-virus solutions. Rather thantrying to identify thousands of new viruses while customersare online, it looks for unusual events on a customer’s PC.This behavioural analysis approach monitors the way programsinteract with each other on a PC. And if something unexpectedhappens, the rogue program and all of its support cast areremoved.Because of where we sit on the machine and because of whatwe see, the AVG behaviour engine can detect and removethreats before there has been ANY impact. Regardless of howthe threat arrived (browser, USB drive, email, P2P file sharing),we protect the system, the data and the user’s identity.
