SAP Note 1730930 - Using antivirus software in an SAP HANA appliance

Component : SAP HANA Database -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1730930 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
To ensure SAP HANA system security and adhere to IT policies, incorporating antivirus software is pivotal. However, typical antivirus solutions do not scan documents stored within SAP HANA. Integration of a compatible antivirus via the XS antivirus interface is recommended, allowing document checks in XS applications. Installation of third-party antivirus software is permissible under specific guidelines involving support limitations from SAP or the hardware supplier, potentially required software deactivation for troubleshooting, and exclusion protocols for specific database and system directories.
