Avain Transmission is most likely to be seriously affected by viruses. There is no known antivirus and this virus can cause total packet loss. To avoid total packet loss, an option could be to duplicate the packets of data over multiple routes. The first carrier to reach the destination will cause subsequent duplicated packets to be discarded.
