Why are there more viruses and infections every day?

The main reason is that every day, more and more users are interconnected via the Internet or other networks, which creates a major channel for the spread of viruses.

Virus programmers are also using ever more sophisticated techniques to create viruses and more cunning ploys to trick users. Similarly, vulnerabilities in commonly used software are now being exploited frequently by virus authors as a means of spreading malicious code.

Due to this, Panda Security offers a daily update of the Virus Signature File. In addition, when a new virus is detected, we offer a beta version* of the Virus Signature File. The update the beta version of the Virus Signature File program is also available.

* Note: The Beta version includes the latest virus detected, although, due to the frequency with which it is released, it is not certified by our Quality Department (however, the daily update is certified)
