I see no reason why. If the internal freshclam clients are allowed to  
connect to the ClamAV servers on the outside through Artifactory, why  
wouldn't they be allowed to connect to a private mirror on the outside  
through Artifactory? As long as the connection is made through  
Artifactory, there is no real difference: neither the ClamAV servers,  
nor the private mirror is in the protected environment. The benefit of  
putting the private mirror in between, is that one has full control  
over the access restrictions. This private mirror could be hosted  
almost anywhere (as long as it has sufficient bandwidth available).
