Description

ClamAV is an open-source antivirus software developed to detect and remove malware, including viruses, trojans, worms, and other threats. It allows:

• File and directory scanning: Analyzes files for known malware signatures.
• Frequent database updates: Maintains an automatically updated malware definition database.
• Real-time and on-demand scanning: Offers continuous protection or manual/scheduled scans.
• Integration with email servers: Allows scanning of email attachments at mail gateways.
• Command line and daemon usage: Can be run via terminal or as a background service (clamd).
• Support for compressed formats: Analyzes compressed files such as ZIP, RAR, TAR, among others.
• Customizable configuration: Allows creating custom rules and adjusting scan settings.

It is widely used in servers, email gateways, and systems that require a lightweight and reliable antivirus solution. It does not have a native graphical interface but can be integrated with third-party tools that offer GUIs.
