  • Publication number: 20120124007
    Abstract: A method of disinfecting an infected electronic file in a file system. At a computer device, a file system is scanned using an anti-virus application to identify the infected electronic file. All or part of an uninfected version of the electronic file is obtained from a backup database of the file system. The backup system includes data from which a plurality of backup copies of at least part of the file system may be obtained. All or part of the infected electronic file is replaced with all or part of the uninfected electronic file. A determination is made as to whether any of the plurality of backup copies include an infected version of the file. If any of the plurality of backup copies include an infected version of the electronic file, the electronic file in the backup database is replaced with all or part of the uninfected version of the electronic file.

  • Patent number: 8136165
    Abstract: A method of establishing a secure communication channel between end nodes of an IP communication network via one or more intermediate nodes using the Secure Shell, SSH, protocol, the method comprising defining an SSH configuration file containing a plurality of sections, each section defining parameter values for a corresponding hop of the tunnel and an identification of the section defining parameter values for any subsequent hop. At that end node, a first instance of an SSH client is established, with the name of the configuration file being an initialization value for the first instance, and using the parameter values contained in a first section of the configuration file to establish a first SSH connection to the next node in the sequence.
