Overview
The Quick Security Scan and ClamAV features scan for viruses and security weaknesses. After you identify a potential security threat, these features will prompt you to take the appropriate action.
Quick Security Scan
The Quick Security Scan feature in WHM (Home >> Security Center >> Quick Security Scan) scans for vulnerabilities, such as Trojans, on your server. We strongly recommend that you use this feature often.
Important: The following items, as well as similar items, are not Trojans:
/sbin/depmod/sbin/insmod/sbin/modinfo
Note: A [FAILED] error message generally means that the scanner attempted to shut down a service that was already offline.
ClamAV Scanner
Clam AntiVirus (Home >> Plugins >> Configure ClamAV Scanner) is an antivirus software toolkit that is standard on new cPanel & WHM installations.
For more information about Clam AntiVirus in cPanel & WHM, read our Configuring ClamAV Scanner article.
