Abstract
Techniques for remediating an infected file are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method may have the steps of maintaining a plurality of file identities within a remediation repository each associated with a file, wherein for each file identity one or more regions of interest of the associated file are selectively identified, the one or more regions of interest for each file collectively representing less than all of the file; in response, selecting a file associated with a file identity from the remediation repository that matches the infected file; selectively comparing the one or more regions of interest of the matching file with one or more corresponding regions of the infected file; and based on comparing the regions, replacing at least one portion of the one or more regions of the infected file with at least one corresponding portion of the one or more regions of interest of the matching file.
