Malicious email attachments

All incoming emails are immediately scanned for attachment files that may be malicious. Email attachment scans support the following archive file types:

  • .zip
  • .rar
  • .7z
  • .tar
  • .gz

Phishing emails

Emails sent between users of the same domain are examined for both malware and phishing. Phishing tickets are only created if the domain or email address is not included in the Allowlist.

Quarantined email attachments by file type

Admin users can trigger an email security ticket by adding a list of blocked email attachment file extensions. Select Quarantine emails with attachments of these specified file types (by default, On). Add and remove file attachment extensions using the File types list.

The list of default file extensions is:

  • .exe
  • .dll
  • .bat
  • .vb
  • .js
  • .com
  • .iso
  • .chm
  • .lnk
  • .htm
  • .html

Quarantine emails with attachment file types

Select Reset to re-add the list of default extensions.

Incoming emails containing attachments of the file types defined are automatically quarantined, and an Email Phishing ticket is created with a finding of Blocked attachment type:
