How HubPro Uses ClamAV, VirusTotal & Metadefender for Ultimate Protection

In a world where cyber threats are growing more dangerous by the day, uploading or downloading a single infected file can wreak havoc on your personal data or business infrastructure.

At HubPro, we believe file sharing should never come at the cost of security.

That’s why every file uploaded through HubPro is automatically scanned using three of the most trusted antivirus technologies in the world:

ClamAV

VirusTotal

Metadefender by OPSWAT

Let’s explore how these tools work and why they make HubPro one of the most secure file-sharing platforms available today.

🔒 The HubPro Security Promise

Before any file becomes available for sharing or download, our system runs it through a triple-layered malware defense.

Whether you're uploading a document, image, ZIP archive, or video, it goes through:

✅ 1. ClamAV: Open-Source Power

ClamAV is a trusted open-source antivirus engine developed for detecting trojans, viruses, malware, and other threats.

Fast and lightweight

Constantly updated with the latest virus definitions

Scans in real-time during the upload process

This is our first line of defense—detecting and blocking known threats before they ever reach your recipients.

✅ 2. VirusTotal: 70+ Scanners in One

Next, we pass your file through VirusTotal, a service that scans files using over 70 different antivirus engines, including:

Kaspersky

AVG

Avast

Bitdefender

Sophos

McAfee

Microsoft Defender

Why this matters:
With VirusTotal, we get a consensus. If even one engine detects a problem, we flag it immediately and block the upload. This drastically lowers the risk of advanced or rare malware making it through.

✅ 3. Metadefender by OPSWAT: Enterprise-Grade Protection

Finally, your file is scanned using Metadefender, a cutting-edge security platform used by banks, governments, and global enterprises.

Metadefender goes beyond traditional antivirus by performing:

Deep content inspection

File sanitization (Content Disarm and Reconstruction - CDR)

Multiple AV engine scanning

Vulnerability assessment

This makes HubPro especially useful for users in sensitive industries like:

Healthcare

Finance

Legal services

Software development

🔐 How It Works Behind the Scenes

When you upload a file to HubPro:

✅ It is instantly scanned by ClamAV

✅ The scan result is validated through VirusTotal’s multi-engine API

✅ A final scan is performed using Metadefender’s Deep CDR and malware engines

❌ If any file fails — it’s blocked.

✅ If it passes all checks — it’s made available for sharing.

You don’t have to do anything. It’s automatic. Every time.

🛡 Why Most File Sharing Platforms Don’t Do This

Many free file-sharing tools skip antivirus scanning entirely—or use only basic detection. This puts you and your recipients at risk.

At HubPro, security isn’t an afterthought. It’s built into every upload.

We invest in top-tier tools not because it’s easy or cheap—but because it’s the right thing to do.

✅ The Bottom Line: HubPro = Maximum Security, Zero Hassle

You shouldn’t have to worry about whether the file you’re sending (or receiving) is dangerous. With HubPro’s multi-layered antivirus defense, you’re protected at every step.
