Re: [clamav-users] Feature request: show checksums of virus databases on the clamav.net website

[Paul Kosinski]

Is the reason you don't want people downloading the CVDs directly
because that approach doesn't distribute the load, or do you have
some changes in mind for Freshclam that are incompatible with simple
direct downloading?

I'd hate to see ClamAV going the way of smartphones and tablets, with
specialized "apps" using opaque protocols replacing HTML and other open
protocols. (Not to mention that recent smartphones seem only to allow
MTP and similar restrictive protocols, as opposed to having the device
export its complete file system over USB like earlier Androids did.)

If you are able to download from the web site to a media that can be brought in 
(not the most secure situation, of course) then simply use the same computer 
you are using to download these updates to run freshclam, copy the already 
verified database of CVD/CLD’s and problem solved.

Re: [clamav-users] Feature request: show checksums of virus databases on the clamav.net website

[Alexey Salmin]

Thanks for your replies.

My particular use case is a network that is physically disconnected
from the internet. Storage devices are allowed though, so I bring a
fresh virus database from time to time. It's used to run nightly scans
on shared network filesystems where malware occasionally show up. I
guess it comes from storage devices too and that was mostly fixed by
installing USB Disk Security on Windows machines. However it only
helps from autoruns, not from infected binaries, so scheduled scans
are still needed (and I think that's a good practice anyway).

Long story short: what is the recommended way to handle this scenario?
I'm thinking of setting up a local mirror on the internet-capable
machine and then take CVDs from there (with checksums or whatsoever).

PS You may wonder if I'm the fool admin mentioned above but that's not
the case (at least the admin part). I'm a user of this network who
volunteered to help with the malware problem with no budget or means
to change security rules.
