This post introduces antivirus scanning capabilities within Cloudflare Gateway. This feature scans inbound files from the internet at Cloudflare's edge, leveraging a malware scanning engine with daily updated definitions. When malware is detected, the file transfer is blocked by resetting the connection, and logs are generated with details of the blocked file and URL. This adds a new layer of defense to Gateway's existing DNS filtering and HTTP traffic inspection.
