One solution is to write an event listener component (for save event
for instance) that checks if an attachment is uploaded and scans it
using your antivirus API. Unfortunately the documentation is a bit
outdated 
.
Maybe others have better suggestions.
Hope this helps,
Marius

  Hi XWiki Devs/Community,
 We're planning a deploy of XE on our Enterprise (a brazilian government
 agency) as the main intranet tool, for about 400 heavy users (in thesis,
 they'll generate a lot of content). We're sure that XE can handle it
 smoothly and it will bring a LOT of help on the day-to-day work of our
 office.
 We're doing some optimizations and fine tunning for the deploy in
 production. Meanwhile, we're facing some troubles with our workstations's
 antivirus tools, which brings me some concerns about the attachment files on
 the filesystems. Trying to address a potential problem (users using attached
 files to spread infected files to other users and, worst, other government
 agencies, which have also critical mission like ours), I would like to use
 the same approach we use on our other systems we've built at home: calling
 an AV engine (such as our cluster of ClamAV servers) from the webapp (we
 already use some java API for this, on our web apps) to scan every file
 being uploaded and before being attached to the wiki, and show some message
 to the user, in case of some trouble.
 I've searched for some plugin or initiative about this, but couldn't find
 any. Is there any going on? If not, from where can I start and what should I
 put under consideration, in order to
 guide our dev staff to plug it in xwiki's core as a plugin/extension?
 Forgive myself in advance if this information is located somewhere on the
 documentation and I couldn't find it.
 Best Regards,
