Review of ProblemReview of SolutionDeliverablesDemonstrationConclusionQuestions

OVERVIEW

Number of computer viruses continue to growAnti-Virus programs fail to offer complete

protectionAnti-Virus programs can interfere with computer

if they become corruptedAnti-Virus programs are often robust in design

and not designed for the average user.“Professional” cleaning services for virus

infections are expensive; can rival the price of a new computer

Data integrity is never guaranteed no matter how much you pay.

PROBLEM

To solve this problem, a new type of anti-virus must be developed. It needs to be: Fast – Scan times need to be kept low. Flexible – The program must be able to grow and adapt with

ease. Light-weight – Program must be small in size so not to bog

down the computer. Non-Intrusive- The program shouldn’t interfere with the

operating of the user’s computer. Easy – the layout and general design of the problem should

be easy to follow and use. Free – the program should be provided to the user free of

charge.

Haze was designed with these in mind.

SOLUTION

In order for Haze to be considered complete, it must be able to perform the following.Scan the computer.Remove any infections found.Boot the machine into and out of safe mode.Download the definition file from the host.Reset networking settings to reestablish internet access.

Generate logs of past scans.

DELIVERABLES
