My project needs to perform virus scan on uploaded files via Azure AppService web app. Files will be stored in Azure Block Storage if they are cleaned. Otherwise, they are rejected to users.

My question: How should I implement this, does Azure provide built-in anti-virus scan?

  • As the answer says there’s currently no real solution to this apart from the Symantec extension, we’re integrating Scanii’s API currently. – Matt Sep 20 '20 at 18:58

At this moment, there's Thread protection in Azure Security Center, but it's not real time and does not offer an API which you can use to trigger the scan:

The alternative is to use 3rd party solutions such as Symantec Cloud Workload Protection:

You can also use open source tools and build your own solution
