Generic Detections are a type of sophisticated detection used by antivirus programs to identify files with malicious characteristics. Items not identified exactly by means of a signature can sometimes be considered to be similar enough to a known item to merit an alert, and in many cases even a class identification.
Generic detection refers to the detection and removal of multiple threats using a single virus definition.
