ClamAV vs Rspamd
Developers should learn and use ClamAV when building or maintaining secure systems, especially for server-side applications, email gateways, or file upload services where malware detection is critical meets developers should learn and use rspamd when building or maintaining email infrastructure that requires robust spam and malware protection, such as for email servers, hosting providers, or enterprise email systems. Here's our take.
