[clamav-users] ClamAV® blog: CRDF Joins the ClamAV Signature Partner Program!

[Joel Esler (jesler)]

All third party signatures have the name of the third party submitter in the signature itself.  For example:

   * Win.Malware.Agent4285353149/CRDF-1

I understand what you are saying Benny, however, we’re rather err on the side of shipping more detection to protect users.

Nothing prevents anyone from using 3rd party sigs.  We just want to
incorporate 3rd party sigs into the official repo, for more coverage,
for more users.
If ClamAV has, say, 10M users, how many of those 10M do you suppose
also run 3rd party sigs?  I’d say less that 5%.

marketing stats

My guess is that Benny doens't really mean "silly" but probably is his "special" way of saying that it would be nice to be able to opt-in to third party sigs.

bravo 5% understand me :(
