Do I need an antivirus on QNAP NAS?

[Windows Central]

Best answer: No, you do not require an antivirus application to be installed on your QNAP NAS. If you'd feel more comfortable using one, QNAP offers a free antivirus program available through the App Center.

You won't be visiting unknown websites on the enclosure, nor will you be downloading attachments from phishing emails.
