One of its main uses is on [[Mail transfer agent|mail servers]] as a server-side [[email virus]] scanner. == History == ClamAV was initially released with version 0.10 on May 8, 2002, by Polish university student Tomasz Kojm.<ref name="clamav20">[https://blog.clamav.net/2022/05/celebrating-20-years-of-clamav.html Celebrating 20 years of ClamAV]</ref> In 2007, it was acquired by [[Sourcefire]],<ref name="techrepublic">[https://www.techrepublic.com/article/sourcefire-acquires-clamav/ Sourcefire acquires ClamAV]</ref> which in turn was acquired by [[Cisco]] in 2013<ref name="techcrunch">[https://techcrunch.com/2013/07/23/cisco-acquires-cybersecurity-company-sourcefire-for-2-7b/ Cisco Acquires Cybersecurity Company Sourcefire For $2.7B]</ref> and now operates under its [[Cisco Talos|Talos]] cybersecurity division. === Patent lawsuit === In 2008, [[Barracuda Networks]] was sued by [[Trend Micro]] for its distribution of ClamAV as part of a security package.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.linux.com/feature/126851 |title=Trend Micro patent claim provokes FOSS community, leads to boycott |publisher=Linux.com |date=2008-02-11 |access-date=2008-02-12}}</ref> Trend Micro claimed that Barracuda's utilization of ClamAV infringes on a [[software patent]] for filtering viruses on an [[Gateway (computer networking)|Internet gateway]]. The [[free software community]] responded in part by calling for a [[boycott]] against Trend Micro. The boycott was also endorsed by the [[Free Software Foundation]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/boycottTrendMicro.html |title=Boycott Trend Micro |publisher=[[Free Software Foundation]] |date=2008-02-11 |access-date=2008-02-12}}</ref> Barracuda Networks counter-sued with IBM-obtained patents in July 2008.<ref>{{cite web|last=Paul |first=Ryan |url=https://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2008/07/barracuda-bites-back-at-trend-micro-in-clamav-patent-lawsuit.ars |title=Barracuda bites back at Trend Micro in ClamAV patent lawsuit |publisher=Arstechnica.com |date=2008-07-02 |access-date=2012-02-14}}</ref> On May 19, 2011, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued a Final Rejection{{clarify|what does this mean in non-legalese?|date=March 2025}}<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.groklaw.net/pdf3/90011022-18.pdf | title=Ex Parte Reexamination | publisher=U.S. Patent and Trademark Office | date=2011-05-19 | access-date=2015-10-04}}</ref> in the reexamination of Trend Micro's U.S. patent 5,623,600.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?story=20110613091958268 | title=Anatomy of a Dying Patent β The Reexamination of Trend Micro's '600 Patent | publisher=Groklaw.net | date=2011-06-13 | access-date=2015-10-04}}</ref> == Features == ClamAV includes a command-line scanner, automatic database updater, and a scalable multi-threaded [[daemon (computer software)|daemon]] running on an anti-virus engine from a shared library.<ref name=ClamAbout/> The application features a [[Milter]] interface for sent mail and on-demand scanning.

Nowadays, the Real-Time Protection in Linux Systems, is provided through ClamAV's ClamOnAcc application (under the name of "''On-Access Scanning''") β which uses ''Clamd'' to provide real-time protection by scanning files when they are accessed.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Scanning β ClamAV Documentation |url=https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Usage/Scanning.html#on-access-scanning |access-date=2024-05-02 |website=docs.clamav.net}}</ref> In other words, the ''On-Access Scanner'' can detect and prevent access to malicious files based on the verdict received from ''Clamd''.<ref name=":1" /> By default, it operates in "''notify-only mode''", alerting users of any threats detected without actively blocking file access.<ref name=":1" /> Enabling "''prevention mode''" can considerably impact performance, especially in commonly accessed directories, so it is advised to use it judiciously.<ref name=":1" /> In order to use ClamOnAcc, users need to first run clamd and then start the On-Access Scanner as root (to leverage its kernel event detection and intervention capabilities).<ref name=":1" /> Configuration for On-Access Scanning is primarily done through ''clamd.conf,'' with additional options available in the On-Access Scanning User Guide.<ref name=":1" /> Users can run multiple instances of ClamOnAcc simultaneously with different configurations, allowing for customized protection settings for various directories.<ref name=":1" /> ''ClamOnAcc'' (v0.102+) is a client application that operates alongside clamd (the ClamAV daemon), to perform On-Access Scanning.<ref name=":1" /> Regarding previous versions that were meant for [[Microsoft Windows]], a free, open-source app called Clam Sentinel did use to detect file changes and scanned modified files using ClamWin.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://cyberpillar.com/dirsver/1/mainsite/techns/bhndscen/protsoft/antimalw/antivir/avmswin/clamwin/mkclmwrt/mkclmwrt.htm | title=Clam Sentinel β Making ClamWin Be Used In Real-Time | author=Cyber Pillar | access-date=2014-09-01 | archive-date=2014-08-19 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140819161847/http://cyberpillar.com/dirsver/1/mainsite/techns/bhndscen/protsoft/antimalw/antivir/avmswin/clamwin/mkclmwrt/mkclmwrt.htm | url-status=dead }}</ref> It did work with Windows 98 and later.
