Cloudflare uses the same [anti-virus (AV) scanner used in Cloudflare Zero Trust](/cloudflare-one/policies/gateway/http-policies/antivirus-scanning/) for WAF content scanning.

In addition, content scanning provides a [managed transform](/rules/transform/managed-transforms/reference/#add-malicious-uploads-detection-header) that adds a `Malicious-Uploads-Detection` request header indicating the outcome of scanning uploaded content for malicious signatures. For example, if the request contains at least one malicious content object, the header value will be `1`.

:::caution

Content scanning will not apply any mitigation actions to requests with content objects considered malicious. It only provides a signal that you can use to define your attack mitigation strategy. You must create rules — [custom rules](/waf/custom-rules/) or [rate limiting rules](/waf/rate-limiting-rules/) — to perform actions based on detected signals.
