Email attachment

An email attachment policy filter allows Forcepoint Email Security to examine email attachment content and determine an attachment’s true file type. The filter is triggered when a specified true file type is detected. Configure the email attachment filter on the page Main > Policy Management > Filters > Add (or Edit) Filter.

An additional option is available to designate an individual file attachment extension or filename allows the filter to detect the specified extension or filename. However, attachment content is not inspected for true file type when this option is enabled.
