Virus scan data before copying data to azure Blob storage?

Folks,

 

Does Azure Blob storage perform a virus scan before allowing data to be transferred to Blob storage.

example: Source location data is infected and while its getting copied to blob storage then will infect the azure environment for the user.

    There is an open-source solution that moves infected blobs to a different container.

    Hi,

    for my point of view there isn’t any functionality like this per default available.
    But take a look at Sophos Security for Azure.

    TrendMicro also have a Solution.
