You will find functional antivirus in packages, such as clamav (which I use in
my spameater appliance), see eg

I am not aware of any publicly available set of documents that provide the
direct checkoffs for OpenBSD with respect to specific compliance regimes, but
I’m fairly certain that you will find useful answers by reading OpenBSD
documentation with your lists of requirements in hand, checking off on your
list (if any) as you go along.
I would recommend browsing the official OpenBSD docs at
https://www.openbsd.org/ <https://www.openbsd.org/>, with special attention to
https://www.openbsd.org/events.html <https://www.openbsd.org/events.html> and
searching https://man.openbsd.org/ <https://man.openbsd.org/> using relevant
keywords. FWIW, perhaps even my recent presentation («OpenBSD and you, the 6.8
update»), linked from
https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20201109055713
<https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20201109055713> could provide some
useful pointers.
All the best,
Peter
