Hi,


I'm hoping someone on this list can answer this question.  I work as a defense 
contractor, and one (frustrating) requirement that we've had for years is that 
we've had to install antivirus tools on our servers, no matter the context or 
risk.  In addition, they had to be "DoD approved" AV tools, which limited us to 
McAfee and Symantec.  Recently, a new draft guidance came out for configuring 
RHEL7 servers, and they had an interesting change to their policy.  We were 
given the option of having either McAfee AV or ClamAV installed.



My question is whether anyone in the ClamAV community knows of any guidance or 
changes in DoD policy that would have made ClamAV an approved AV client.  If we 
could find that supporting guidance that would have led the DoD to change their 
configuration documentation, it would go a long way in letting me get approval 
to rip out McAfee.



Thanks for any info you might have!



Tom Albrecht
