3.1  Function overview 

AntiVir SharePoint is an antivirus solution developed specially for Microsoft SharePoint 
and supports the following SharePoint technology: 

– 

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 

– 

Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 

– 

Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 

– 

Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 

Microsoft SharePoint technology enables a company’s documents to be made available to 
users at a central point and manages these documents with a version control. 
Documents are accessed by means of a web interface - the SharePoint team pages - by 
uploading and downloading. The documents and files are saved in a central MS SQL 
database. This is a serious problem for security because the data cannot be protected 
against virus attacks using a conventional antivirus solution such as an on-demand or 
on-access virus scanner: On-demand and on-access virus scanners require that the data 
to be scanned should exist as files in the file system.  

Depending on the configuration, AntiVir SharePoint scans documents for viruses and 
malware at every upload and downloaded to/from the SharePoint team pages. If a virus 
is found, transfer is prevented if the document cannot be repaired.
