Hello,
if you want use Virus Scan within SAP applications you can use Virus Scan Interface in SAP (transaction VSCAN).
There is a OpenSource adapter for ClamAV engine on http://freshmeat.net/projects/clamsap/
The library allows an integration of ClamAV into SAP and works also on Unix where most other products dont run.
Have fun,

Hi everyone,

Max,
you need to go to /nvscanprofile to create/modify/activate virus scan profiles.
Depending on how much granularity you need, we usually recommend one of these appraocahes:
1.) you may create a new profile, make it default and link it to your virus scanner group in the "Steps" configuration. This means all profiles that using the default profile as a reference (default setting) will use the scan settings and parameters specified in your new profile.
2.) you can edit a pre-existing profile (i.e. HTMLB_UPLOAD) and configure the steps in this profile and make it default. Remember to uncheck "use reference", otherwise you will get a "recursive occurrence of profile XYZ" error message.
3.) edit the settings and steps in every profile you wish to activate. That way, you can specify specific scan paramerters per profile/application, for example different MIME-type filters, Extension filters, active content-filters and virus-scan parameters.
I hope this helps a bit!

clamsap is not a commercial product, so the documentation is very, very limited...
Here's what I know:
- you need to have ClamAV installed and running on the server
- you need to install/build clamsap
- Client 00/tcode VSCANGROUP: create a new Virus Scan group
- Client 00/tcode VSCAN, create a new Virus Scan Adapter, Adapter-path points to libclamsap.sl
- appli. Client: tcode VSCANPROFILE: create/edit a virus scan profile. Insert the Virus Scan Group in the "Steps" of the active profile(s)
I hope this helps getting you started.

Hi Sandeep,
did you get it managed to setup clamsap? if not I recommend you to open a OSS ticket at SAP. use component BC-SEC-VIR.

Hello Joerg,
is it possible to find some documentation on how to use ClamAV as a virus scan server?
We would like to connect via RFC to one server which updates the signatures via internet.
Or does ClamAV has to be installed on each SAP server with ClamSAP?
Regards,
Julia

Hi Julia,
I'm no expert on ClamSAP, but it is my understanding that ClamAV needs to be installed locally.
With our commercial solution "BowBridge AntiVirus Bridge", you can secure multiple AS with one central ClamAV instance though.
cheers,
Joerg

Hello Joerg,
thanks for your answer.
Does Bowbridge use ClamAV too? Is Bowbridge AntiVirus Bridge based on ClamAV?
And where can I find a little bit more documentation for installing and configuring ClamAV together with ClamSAP?
Regards,
Julia

Hi Julia,
BowBridge AntiVirus Bridge is not "based on" ClamAV, it comes with McAfee and SOPHOS virus scanning engines built-in, but it can leverage ClamAV (either locally or on a remote server) using the native ClamAV protocol.
You may also connect to ClamAV (as well as Symantec, Trend Micro, Kaspersky, MetaScan etc..) via the ICAP protocol.
Actually, quite a few of our customers use ClamAV as a "second opinion" scanner or for the Non-Prod environments.
best,
Jörg

Hello Jörg,
thanks for your input.
So currently there are only three provider mentioned in sapnote 1494278, which have certificate status. These are Bowbridge, Trendmicro and ClamAV. If there is no really documentation for ClamAV, this are only two vendors.
Regards,
Julia
