See cloud.  you can detect what is there, it is not about Collective Intelligence as we classify files that we have not seen. Then we can say that it is malware, we are seeing 70,000 files a day and 50,000 is malware, and we are now able to classify 99.4 per cent.

Most of the detections are made in a generic way, we have had the team looking at it but with one detection you can classify thousands of files.

Panda Security managing director for UK and Ireland, Petter Lautin claimed that the servers automatically detect, correlate and respond to the new malware samples seen every day.
