Modern computer trends require more ways to secure your data and privacy. Therefore, you need to be protected, usually with one or more anti-virus products, and preferably with gateway-level products, just to be on the safe side. However, most anti-virus software tools out in the market do not get along well with each other, since both programs perform the same job, whereas Clam AV for Windows not only does a great job at protecting your system, but also it is compatible with most anti-virus out there.
Clam AV for Windows is an anti-virus that uses cloud and community-based technologies to protect your computer. This approach provides a wider range of detection and a highly up-to-date protection tool. Besides, this product allows you to submit to the community suspicious files for analysis.
There are three types of detection engines used to find possible threats – these are ETHOS, SPERO, and TETRA. ETHOS is a heuristic-based engine, SPERO is a fast cloud-based engine that detects malware using models based on machine learning, while TETRA is a traditional virus detection engine that can work offline and helps the first two engines in identifying infections.
As a whole, the product is a very interesting tool, because its cloud- and community-based updates, and, of course, because it is open source, i. e. free for use.
