RE: How do I test functionality of an anti-virus and Idp device

You can use the EICAR test string for your virus demo. All anti-virus
vendor should detect it as a virus even though it is harmless.

Subject: How do I test functionality of an anti-virus and Idp device

Hello friends,

How do I test if a firewall and IDP device can actually carry out its
functions. I'm supposed to do a demo demonstrating the antivirus and IDP
features. How do I go about that, can I get a virus and send it to the
device and see if it blocks it or do I try hacking into the network and
watch if the IDP prevents it. If I'm to do all this, how do I get a
virus and I can't even hack. Pls, I need help.
