ClamXav is a Mac malware scanner with an unusual position in this index: it is essentially one developer's product, it has been maintained for well over a decade, and it is built on ClamAV, the open-source antivirus engine, with the developer's own additions around detection and usability. Canimaan Software, the British company behind it, sells it as a straightforward paid application for macOS — a scanner that checks files, drives and mail for both Mac malware and Windows malware passing through a Mac, which matters for users who forward files to colleagues on other platforms. It is a small independent product and appears in the independent laboratory cycles rarely. Its engine lineage is worth noting when reading results: ClamAV's detection is open and shared, so a ClamXav result reflects that engine rather than a proprietary one developed in-house.
