Content Filtering for Exchange Server

 

The Content Filtering feature allows administrators to filter email messages based on the extension of their attachments.

Once you have set a list of potentially suspicious files, configure the action to take on them.

 

Blocking dangerous files

Select the relevant checkbox to classify certain extensions as dangerous. Then, use the Add, Delete, Clear and Restore buttons to set the list of extensions to block.

 

Blocking files with double extensions

Use the Content Filtering feature to block messages containing files with double extensions, except for the ones you allow. Use the Add, Delete, Clear and Restore buttons to configure the list of double extensions to allow.

 

Action to take

Select whether you want to delete files with dangerous attachments or move them to a specific folder. This can very useful to store and analyze those files in order to make the appropriate adjustments to the list of dangerous extensions.

Click OK. Your Exchange servers will be protected against dangerous attachments.
