Abstract

A self-healing device is provided in which changes made between the time that an infection resulting from an attack on the device was detected and an earlier point in time to which the device is capable of being restored may be recovered based, at least in part, on what kinds of changes were made, whether the changes were bona fide or malware induced, whether the changes were made after the time that the infection likely occurred, and whether new software was installed.
