Can you please let us know your requirement correctly as I see you have covered all that is required for good and perfect antivirus software. Most of the below items, you might have taken from below website. I see it also elaborates each component.
http://www.symantec.com/connect/articles/building-anti-virus-engine I also recommend you to visit the below link to know interesting ideas which any user usually need from a security program... http://www.symantec.com/connect/security/ideas Further in my opinion, (1) The antivirus would be ideal when you let user to configure / modify / update the rules or antivirus definations manually other than automated fashion using heuristics. (2) The interface shall be user friendly so that with little bit of knowledge, a user should be able to write a defination and the tool shall help him to block or remove such infections / behaviour. (3) All the modules of antivirus software should be packaged in such a way that no one or malware should not be able to bypass / break the antivirus protection. In otherwords, software-tamper proofing. (4) Also, antivirus or related security softwares shall have collaboration concept where each client or server when knows any new behaviour / defination or new rule updated by user for some latest 0day protection; these all should be communicated to the rest community automatically.
