Kaspersky Endpoint for businesses. This is the only competent solution that exists as a realtime AV. The fact is, most AV companies do not make AV for Linux, and most of those who do, make it just for the business and not from a competence POV. Regardless of your political stance, Kaspersky is by far the anti-malware industry king, both in terms of heuristic and blacklist protection and in terms of annual global reports.
Thanks, my government (UK) has banned Kaspersky for use in their infrastructure, so I’ll follow their advice for my own. Not mentioned in the replies is BitDefender, I see they have a solution as well, I’ll evaluate.
Maybe Crowdstrike? I know I see it on our linux machines. I am not endorsing it one way or the other. I will say that we have had a couple of incidents where I thought it was taking up more cpu in a high cpu situation, but our admins turned it off, and that wasn’t the problem. So I guess it’s working ok. One of their updates caused some issues one time, and I don’t recall the exact details, but I think that was a one off and they haven’t done it again.
I almost forgot to tell you. For the equivalent of business endpoint AVs, there exist consumer AVs. If for those products, the companies have auto renewal policy, stay away from any such money grubber AV company. Very few companies like Kaspersky do NOT have auto renewal. Norton for example has it.
