Abstract

In an antivirus multiprocessor system, a second processor (2) is attached to a first processor (11) for monitoring its performance and intervening if predefined behaviour thereof is detected. The second processor (2) includes means for continuously supervising the operation of the first processor (11) to detect virus-related activities therein by comparing therein actual performed instructions in the first processor (11) with instruction sequences corresponding to known viruses or to predefined suspect behaviour, to prevent damage to the application processor. A plurality of sensors is used to detect suspect activity in various media like radio frequency or wireless RF, serial or parallel communication channels.
