6.5. Samples Submission System
Samples submission system is an intelligent ThreatSense.NET technology that provides
catching of the infected objects found by advanced heuristics method and delivering these
objects to the samples submission system server. All virus samples catched by the sample
submission system will be processed by the team of ESET virus laboratory department and
consequently added into the ESET virus database, if necessary.
