Scanning Files
Common questions this page answers:
- How are files scanned in Bailo?
- What scanners are used for file scanning?
- How do I rescan a file?
Using scanners
When uploading files to Bailo, your files will be automatically scanned (assuming scanners are configured and initialised).
By default, Bailo is configured to use the following scanners:
- ClamAV is an Antivirus tool used for traditional malware detection. You can read more about it here.
- ModelScan is a tool used to prevent model serialisation attacks, across a variety of formats. You can read more about it here. ModelScan is packaged in Bailo ArtefactScan
For scan results:
- Go to your model and click on File Management Tab
- Click the Scan chip, towards the right of your file
- View scan results. Each scanning tool will have its results listed separately
The screenshot above shows a file in the File Management tab with a scan status chip that can be clicked to view scan results.
Rescan file
To rescan a file after it has been uploaded, click the 3 dots to the right of the scan results chip and select the Rescan option.
The screenshot above shows the file actions menu with a Rescan option for re-running security scans.
