Dr.Web Scanning Engine

Dr.Web Scanning Engine scanning engine is designed to search viruses and other malicious objects in files and boot records (MBR — Master Boot Record, VBR — Volume Boot Record) of disk devices. The component loads the anti-virus engine Dr.Web Virus-Finding Engine into memory and starts it as well as loads Dr.Web virus databases used by the engine for threats detection.

The scanning engine operates in daemon mode, as a service which receives scanning requests from other Dr.Web for UNIX File Servers components.
