Scan Virus/Malware while uploading the image by USER using jQuery

[sateeshk9319722]

Hai All,

We have one use case, where the user can upload an image (let's say Identity card photo).

Now in the front end, I need to check for any malware/virus is present in that image.

Do we have any Jquery plugins or any similar implementations available?

Kindly suggest here.

Many Thanks,

Sateesh Kotramangalam.

Hi @sateeshk9319722,

We do have one from NPM module - https://www.npmjs.com/package/clamscan

Also, I suggest to consider other validations related to file upload in general both in front end and at back end (If your implementation involves back end logic too)
