Abstract

Protecting newly restored clients from computer viruses is described. A system identifies a backed-up version of anti-virus software associated with a backup copy of a data set for a client. The system receives a request to restore the data set for the client. The system determines whether the backed-up version of the anti-virus software comprises a most recent version of the anti-virus software. The system restores the data set for the client based on the most recent version of the anti-virus software in response to a determination that the backed-up version of the anti-virus software does not comprise the most recent version of the anti-virus software.
