In our current project, we are using SAP Linux Suse 15.2 with MCafee EPO. In order to activate the AV config for SAP (SAP Linux does not support Mcafee) we're thinking implementing the ClamSAP AV.

Running two virus scanners (especially in "on-access" mode) is often very slow and there is the possibility that one scanner will object to the other scanner's definitions (either now, or at any time after the definitions are updated).
* Does ClamSAP only will scan this integration or it will monitor * the whole SAP NW?
I had not heard of ClamSAP before, and I believe that the ClamAV team have no part in its development. A quick glance at the NW-VSI technical spec https://ftp2.gwdg.de/pub/misc/sapdb/icc/nw-vsi/VSA-Specification.pdf makes me think that NW-VSI controls what ClamSAP monitors, but it would probably be worth checking with the ClamSAP maintainer Markus Strehle https://sourceforge.net/projects/clamsap/support I see that he also maintains SAVI-SAP - a link between SAP and Sophos. I guess he might be able to help you develop a SAP-McAfee link if that would be a sensible direction ... As always, if you are using any malware detection system you need to know what you are protecting, what you are protecting it from and that no system catches all malware (people on this list have reported that ClamAV with default definitions catches less than 10% of what they see !)
