Abstract：The existing antivirus methods take too much system overhead, consume a lot of network bandwidth and can not detect the unknown programs in time. Therefore, this paper improved the previous work and presented a new virtual desktop antivirus model regarding virtual desktop infrastructure. It supported active antivirus and passive antivirus moves. Privileged virtual machines were used to scan viruses, manage the trust-list and transmit signatures of every virtual machine to others. Agents were used to analyze the signatures and characteristics of files, optimize the bytes to be uploaded and scanned, and scan the programs timely when being loaded. The experimental results show that model can detect viruses in real-time, in the meantime reduce system overhead and network bandwidth usage.
