Gateway Anti-Virus

Gateway Anti-Virus is a powerful antivirus software that enables enterprise applications to perform virus checks on their files. This is achieved through the utilization of a SOAP-based virus scanning web service, which enables client applications to attach their files to SOAP messages and submit them to the Gateway Anti-Virus web service. The software uses the reliable clamav to scan attachments for viruses, before returning the results to the client.

One of the key features of Gateway Anti-Virus is that it includes a web service server (gatewayavd) and an example web service client (gatewayav-client) as part of its first release. The software requires several components such as GNU Compiler Collection, GNU make, CMake, libclamav, libconfuse, libcsoap, libdaemon, libnanohttp, libxml, and libpthread to function optimally.

Installation of Gateway Anti-Virus is simple and straightforward. From the source directory, users must run the following commands: $ cmake . $ make $ make install.

The most recent release includes a minor update that fixes a bug in the WSDL and adds version information to the server response. Overall, Gateway Anti-Virus seems to be a comprehensive antivirus software that provides efficient and reliable virus scanning capabilities for enterprises.
