Hi, I understand the pro of having a Linux antivirus on a Linux server, especially a mail or file server. However I'm writing to you here for a personal Linux workstation (Debian 10) and I think I have a rather safe higiene on the internet globally already (I'm really careful on what I click on or download or configure).
Considering the fact I am human so not perfect at all + other notions like defense in depth / layered defense... would you recommend having a Linux anti-malware? If so, what do you think please about: * ClamAV? * Sophos antivirus for Linux? * Comodo antivirus for Linux? * F-Prot antivirus for Linux Workstations? These are the only free (as in free beer) solutions I've found for Linux. Do you have other suggestions? My criteria are: * maintained software with frequent signatures updates * $ free (OSS would be the icing on the cake) * renowned in its sector* no bloatware (I prefer if it's lightweight. I don't care if there is no GUI)* resident protection would be nice. At least it should scan my downloads on the fly and proceed to automatic scans at regular intervals Besides, do I really need an anti-rootkit solution like chkrootkit or Rootkit Hunter? Thanks a lot in advance :) Best regards, l0f4r0
