[QUOTE="struppigel, post: 973144, member: 86910"] So you are referring to the signature database on the client with the patterns, hashes, and scripts that are checked by the scanning engine? Those are usually custom-made formats to optimize performance and RAM usage and also to avoid making it obvious for malware devs how the signatures look like. Edit: If you want to see an open source example, check out Yara and its compiled signature database. [/QUOTE]
