File virus scanner documentation contents for viruses using continuously updated signatures. Detect ransomware, Trojans, worms, backdoors, rootkits, spyware and other malicious software.
You can integrate with enterprise-grade virus scanning products by using the Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP). ICAP enables you to delegate uploads and downloads of files to other services that handle them on your network, such as an ICAP server. This allows you to avoid having to scan these files on your own system, which reduces the amount of work your own system has to do and also helps protect your data against malware.
The vscan service uses multiple scanners to scan files and media for viruses. The number of scanners that the vscan service uses can be configured through the options available in the Configure Virus Scanner dialog box. You can also specify the locations of the virus scan engine in a configuration file.

A new feature in Connections enables you to configure the behavior of virus scanning for files that are uploaded into the database. You can choose whether to allow users to download the files after they have been scanned or to log them to a quarantine. This setting is not recommended unless you have an effective, enterprise-grade virus scanner in place.
Using the Virus Scanner API, you can create an application that accepts a file and then performs a real-time sandbox analysis in a sandbox environment to identify trojans, keyloggers, ransomware, worms, rootkits, spyware, adware, and other malware. The application can then report back whether the file is clean or infected, including other details like the file size and hash value.
