Introduction
The goal of this project is to provide an integrated real-time virus
scanning service to support OpenSolaris as a storage operating
system.
Virus scanning will be initiated from the underlying file system
when files are accessed or modified, thus ensuring that each file has
been scanned with the latest virus definitions before a client uses it.
Enhancements to the file system will support the storage of per-file
virus scanning attributes to indicate, for example, if a file is infected
and has been quarantined. The VSCAN service will utilize third party
virus scanning applications and appliances from key anti virus vendors.
What's New
The inaugural integration of the Solaris VSCAN service is available
in ONNV Build 78. This initial integration implements the VSCAN
service as an ICAP client, communicating with external third party
virus scan engines.
