B2B Integration : Managing File Transfers with ActiveTransfer : Managing ActiveTransfer Gateway : Supporting Virus Scanning with Internet Content Adaptation Protocol
Supporting Virus Scanning with Internet Content Adaptation Protocol
 
How Does Virus Scan Work?
Memory Configuration for Virus Scanning of Files Exceeding Scan Buffer Size
Configuring Antivirus Scan for Inbound Files
Monitoring File Transaction Status for Virus Scanning
You can configure ActiveTransfer Gateway can be configured to perform antivirus scanning of inbound files by using a third-party antivirus scanner which supports ICAP(Internet Content Adaptation Protocol). Antivirus scanning is limited to the scanning of inbound files, and does not support scanning of the internal ActiveTransfer Server environment or outbound files.
Virus scanning of files uploaded to ActiveTransfer Gateway requires the following:
*A dedicated ICAP-compliant server that is accessible from ActiveTransfer Gateway and performs an antivirus scan on all inbound files to detect malicious content.
Note:  
The set up and configuration of an ICAP server are independent of ActiveTransfer Gateway, and are not in the scope of this document.
*Configuration of ActiveTransfer Gateway to connect to the ICAP server.
*Activation of antivirus scanning by the configured ICAP server.
While configuring the ICAP server, ensure that you address the following:
*The maximum file size that the ICAP server can handle is higher than the Total Scan Buffer Size configured in ActiveTransfer Gateway.
*The ICAP server can process encrypted files. If you do not include this configuration, the ICAP server might report the virus scan result incorrectly.
