and http/https should be scanned at a proxy (which most 'gateway'
antivirus software do)

Pls specify which gateway scans HTTPS.

To scan HTTPS, gateway has to practically do man-in-the-middle attack, what
IMHO has no sense.
I know some products claim they scan HTTPS but that ruins main idea about
authenticating both sides (client and server).
