Global Antivirus: Content Scanning in GoAnywhere MFT

 

In this video, Fortra Lead Solutions Engineer Scott Mesic demonstrates the Global Antivirus (Global AV) feature in GoAnywhere MFT and how it enables real‑time content scanning across file transfer services. 

You’ll learn when to use Global AV for services such as HTTPS, SFTP, FTPS, FTP, GoDrive, Secure Mail, and Secure Forms—especially when you need centralized scanning without building custom projects or workflows. The video also explains how Global AV differs from triggers and projects, and when those approaches are better suited for quarantining, file movement, or scheduled tasks. A short demo shows how to enable Global AV, configure actions and exemptions, scan files by content and signature, and review audit logs to understand why files are allowed or blocked. 

👉 Ideal for teams looking to add simple, consistent content scanning across GoAnywhere with minimal configuration.
