A method and system is provided for detecting malicious files in a distributed network having a plurality of virtual machines. An example method includes: determining and obtaining, by a virtual machine, at least one file for performing an antivirus scan; collecting data relating to characteristics of computing resources of each virtual machine and parameters relating to the antivirus scan; determining an approximation time function of the characteristics of the computing resources and an approximation function of the one or more parameters for determining an approximation time function of effectiveness of the antivirus scan; and beased at least on the approximation time function of effectiveness of the antivirus scan, selecting one virtual machine to perform the antivirus scan in order to determine whether the at least one file is malicious.

System and method of distributing files between virtual machines forming a distributed system for performing antivirus scans

A method and system is provided for detecting malicious files on a virtual machine in a distributed network. An example method includes, receiving, by a thin client operating on the virtual machine, data relating to characteristics of computing resources of servers in the distributed network with each server being able to scan files to detect malicious files. The method for includes obtaining a on the virtual machine, identifying and selecting, using the data relating to characteristics of the computing resources, one of the servers to perform the scan of the file on the virtual machine, and transmitting to the selected server the file for scanning.

Disclosed are systems, methods and computer program products for controlling access to encrypted files. In one aspect, the system detects a request from an application to access an encrypted file. The system identifies the application that requested access to the encrypted file and one or more file access policies associated with the application. The file access policy specifies at least a file access method associated with the application. The system then controls access to the file based on the identified one or more file access policies.

Disclosed are systems, methods and computer readable medium for updating software of templates of virtual machines. An example method includes determining a first coefficient indicative of a level of importance of a continuous operation of one or more virtual machines created from a virtual machine template; determining a second coefficient indicative of a level of criticality of software updates on the one or more virtual machines created from the virtual machine template; determining a third coefficient as a function of the first coefficient and the second coefficient; and when the third coefficient exceeds a threshold, updating the software on the virtual machine template to generate an updated virtual machine template.
