Suggestion: File-Information and Reputation-Rating-System

It is something i have seen in Norton or Kaspersky security software.

Basically it gives the user informations, taken from Avast’s database, about a file downloaded or installed on the computer.
Its purpose is to contribute to decision-making, how to handle little known files.

Informations like:

  • How long a file is known to Avast
  • How big is the spread of a file
  • What the regions of spread are
  • Does it have valid digital sinatures
  • How many users trust for example little known files and use them
  • To sum up those informations to a handling recommendation
