The Anti-Spyware Coalition has released two documents designed to help empower manufacturers of antispyware with new knowledge and tactics.
The first of the two documents released Thursday, “Best Practices,” is a set of recommended techniques based on the ASC’s definition and classification of “spyware” and providing a precise description of how an antispyware company can analyze a piece of software and determine whether it might be harmful or invasive. Additionally, “Best Practices” details company practices that can provide legitimate value to customers concerned about spyware risks.
