NETWORK ATTACK BLOCKER<br />

The Network Attack Blocker scans inbound traffic for activity typical of network attacks. Once an attempt to attack your<br />

computer is detected, <strong>Kaspersky</strong> <strong>Internet</strong> <strong>Security</strong> blocks any network activity of the attacking computer towards your<br />

computer.<br />

By default, the block lasts for one hour. A warning will appear on the screen stating that an attempted network attack has<br />

taken place, with specific information about the computer which attacked yours. Descriptions of currently known network<br />

attacks (see section "Types of detected network attacks" on page 114) and methods to fight them are provided in<br />

<strong>Kaspersky</strong> <strong>Internet</strong> <strong>Security</strong> databases. The list of attacks which the Network Attack Blocker can detect is updated when<br />

the application's databases are updated (see section "Update" on page 72).<br />
