Re: [clamav-users] How many viruses/malware is clamav protecting us from?

2022-12-15 Thread Joel Esler via clamav-users 
Technically speaking, this is an impossible question to answer.

Since there are millions of pieces of detection in ClamAV, but one piece of 
detection can cover millions of pieces of malware.

[clamav-users] ClamAV Scanning Server for large deployments (1000+ servers)

2022-12-15 Thread Will Reiske 
Greetings!

I've been running clamscan locally on about 1,000 servers. Each server has its 
own freshclam instance and scans are started from a cronjob. I noticed recently 
that ClamAV has a TCP socket option that can run as a server. Has anyone had 
any experience with a large deployment targeting a clamav server?

>From a technical standpoint, what is being transmitted over the TCP socket? A 
>hash of the local file? I'm curious if the network overhead of having 1,000+ 
>servers scanning over a TCP socket instead of on the local host is going to be 
>too much. I guess I could always go and test it, but I figured I'd ask around 
>if anyone is already doing something similar.

Thanks,
Will

"sigtool --find-sigs ." should work to list all current rules, but yeah unless 
you are looking for something specific, I don't know the reason you would want 
them.

I don't believe I understand your question. Are you asking what malware clamav 
is protecting you against? If so the simple answer is all malware (viruses are 
just one type of malware).

That would make sense since it's the free anti-virus software provided. The
other choices require a license. Thanks for the help.
