In this demo I’m running Docker for Windows on my Desktop, and coding in Visual Studio 2019 with local Azure Functions. In this blogpost I will show a proof of concept using a Docker image and Azure Functions to create a simple automated virusscanner for Azure Blob storage.įirst of all some prerequisites. We scanned files that end-users uploaded within an ASP.NET application, and everything was hosted on datacenter VMs somewhere in the Netherlands.ĬlamAV® is an open source antivirus engine for detecting trojans, viruses, malware & other malicious threats. During that project we used ClamAV that was installed on a VM.

That made me think about a project I did a couple of years back.

While working on a side project, someone asked me how to scan for viruses in a cloud native and serverless landscape.
