Missing entire subsection: Multiscanning Sites (VirusTotal, Jotti, VirScan, NoVirusThanks, FilterBit, VirScan, Virus.Org, VirusChief, etc.)[edit]

Half of this topic is missing: multi-engine file scanning sites. This article only discusses individual applications that incorporate engines from multiple vendors. The article needs a brief explanation and then a table that lists the site, approximate number of products, maximum file size, OS (Microsoft Windows; *nix), email submission, context menu integration, URL reputation, and tools/integration. Site specific articles should be cross-referenced.

1. VirusTotal VirusTotal.com Products = ~42 Max Size = 20MB (all routes?) MS Windows(?) Languages = Eng/... email = Y (upload; notification) MS Windows Explorer Context Menu Integration = Y (with Uploader) URL Reputation = Y (site & uploader) (~nn evaluaters) Browser Integration: Firefox; Chrome Also: Public API; Firefox downloader integration; hash search

2. Jotti's Malware Scan virusscan.jotti.org Products = ~20 Max Size = 20MB(?)(site; ?? JottiQ) Linux Languages = Eng/... email = N(?) Explorer Context Menu Integration = Y (via JottiQ uploader) URL Reputation = N Browser Integration: None(?) Also: Hash search; JottiQ is a DonationCoder project by worstje

3. NoVirusThanks vscan.NoVirusThanks.org Products = ~10 Max Size = 20 MB (site; 5(?) MB uploader) Etc. (many-featured uploader)

Other Multiscanning Products[edit]

Doesn't Immunet Protect Free use an in-house scanner plus ClamAV while Immunet Protect Pro adds BitDefender

I can't find good references at the moment but I believe many corporate oriented products optionally include engines from multiple vendors, especially mail gateways. 108.28.167.153 (talk) 01:30, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
