This still uses a thin client type application installed on the client.
Yes, its more clound than local, but most corporate AV's work similar to this. They are more client heavy, but with a little tweaking they could move to a cloud type formation.

Questions:

1. What kind of impact would this have a WAN or the internet.

2. Do users really want a remote service they dont control analyzing everything they execute?
