title: Virus Scanning Uploaded files from Azure Web/Worker Role
body: <p>We are designing an Azure Website which will allow users to Upload content(MP4,Docx...MSOffice Files) which can then be accessed.</p>
  
  <p>Some video content we will encode to provide several differing quality formats, before it will be streamed (using <a href="http://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/services/media-services/" rel="noreferrer">Azure Media Services</a>).</p>
  
  <p>We need to add an intermediate step so we can scan uploaded files for potential virus risk.  Is there functionality built into azure (or third party) which will allow us to call an API to scan content before processing it? We are ideally looking for an API rather than just a background service on a VM, so we can get feedback potentially for use in a web or worker role.</p>
  
  <p>Had a quick look at Symantec Endpoint and Windows Defender but not sure these offer an API</p>
