Backup copies of dangerous
objects
Sometimes when objects are disinfected their integrity is lost. If a disinfected file
contains important information which is partially or fully corrupted, you can at-
tempt to restore the original object from a backup copy.
A
backup copy
is a copy of the original dangerous object that is created before
the object is disinfected or deleted. It is saved in Backup.
Backup
is a special storage area that contains backup copies of dangerous ob-
jects. Files in backup are saved in a special format and are not dangerous.
