Overview

While USAID has implemented anti-virus protection for the desktops, some servers, and e-mail systems, viruses can still get past these security controls and infect your desktop. When virus writers release new viruses “in the wild,” there is normally a lag before the vendors update the anti-virus signatures. During this lag, your computer is vulnerable.
