Non-rectifiable media types with magic bytes mismatch

The actions configured here will be executed when content types do not match their magic byte sequence.

So, e. g., a JPEG image named as a GIF file would be affected by a filtering action, even though each of these media types are acceptable.

Response without Content-Type header

The actions configured here will be executed when media type information is contained in a response header..

Web Upload Filter

The Web Upload Filter section looks like this:

Using this section, you can configure actions, e. g. Block, Block, log and notify, Allow, etc., for the Web Upload Filter.

This filter protects corporate privacy and sensitive data by filtering what employees send out, e. g. FTP uploads or file attachments sent through common HTTP-based Web mail services, such as Hotmail or GMX.

You can limit the size that uploads may have or even forbid uploads of all HTTP and FTP files.

The actions that you configure here will be executed according to the result achieved by the Media Type Filter for a filtered object.

You can also configure different actions for Web and e-mail traffic.

After specifying the appropriate settings here, click on Apply Changes to make them effective.
