As the net-security.org, scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) in Richlande, United States, invented a new way to combat malicious programs in computer systems. Moreover, they have the basis for the principles of behavior of ants. It is known that they have something of a "collective intelligence" and smoothly interact, talking among themselves and ensuring the functioning of the ant. Scientists have decided that this method is useful for the detection and destruction of viruses, trojans and worms.
Modern antivirus programs are based on constantly updated databases of malware, because attackers constantly creating new and new variants. Large databases and the need to frequently update require a lot of resources and not always effective. The principle established by Glenn Fink involves the use of multiple scanners, special programs, which will constantly check your computer or network from multiple computers. When a threat is detected, they will leave marks signals for the other "digital ants", so it can be easy to locate and destroy.
It is planned to create about 3000 different types of such programs. New anti-virus system has already been tested on 64 computers in a network. Scientists have not yet said when they plan to finish the work and submit a final version of the "digital nest".
