TRUSTED ENVIRONMENT FOR MALWARE DETECTION Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G06F21/00 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: in one implementation, a trusted operating environment, which may include a trusted operating system and a trusted antivirus tool, may be embodied on a removable data medium. The computing device is then booted from the removable data medium using the trusted operating system. The trusted antivirus tool searches for virus signature updates on the computing device and uses the trusted operating system to scan the computing device for malware. In another implementation, the computing device is booted from a trusted operating system on a removable device, and the trusted antivirus tool on the removable device scans the computing device for malware. The removable device may update its own internal components (e.g., virus signatures and the antivirus tool) by searching for updates on the computing device or a remote resource and by authenticating any updates detected.

EFFECT: high efficiency of malware detection.
