Virus shields, often referred to as antivirus software, are designed to detect, prevent, and remove malicious software from computers and networks. They typically use a combination of signature-based detection, heuristic analysis, and real-time scanning to identify threats. While they provide a level of protection, they are not foolproof and should be used in conjunction with safe browsing practices and regular system updates for optimal security. It's also important to keep virus shields updated to protect against new and evolving threats.
