We are quite cautious about the choice of the software because:
- we know that anti-virus software may be quite intrusive on a development machine (slow, blocks legitimate files, etc.),
- once we pay for it, we don't want to go back and chose another one until the next licence renewal, so we'd like to make the good choice at once.
Can you recommend an anti-virus software that you currently use in a development environment and have good experience with?
Some context:
- we are looking for something really simple, like a file scanner for starters; all other features are considered as a bonus
- we have Mac, Linux and Windows machines
- we mostly develop in JVM and Python ecosystems
- our workflows are heavy on the file system, but our data is simple (should not contain any malware normally)
