"To keep my data safe what should I do ?" is an unrelated question to "anti-virus". – Rinzwind Mar 12 '16 at 10:55

If you keep your Ubuntu system up to date (software updates), you need no antivirus. I am running Linux since 1992 and never got any virus in near 25 years.

2If you do not keep your system up to date you do not need it either ;-) – Rinzwind Mar 12 '16 at 10:54
