Description

Unofficial antivirus definition files can be downloaded in a FreshClam-like workflow for systems that use additional signature sources. This is useful for administrators who maintain malware-scanning setups with extra feeds.

It is a security update helper. Signature sources affect what is detected and may produce false positives, so administrators should trust sources, test updates, and monitor scan behavior.
