At cloudcode, we understand the critical importance of securing business communications against a myriad of threats lurking within email attachments. Our Business Email Solutions, powered by cloudcode ATP (Advanced Threat Protection), offer robust filtering mechanisms, ensuring your organization’s email ecosystem remains shielded from phishing attempts, SPAM, malware, and other unwanted intrusions.

Understanding Threats in Email Attachments

Email attachments serve as a double-edged sword, facilitating seamless communication while also harboring potential risks. Within our ATP system, attachment filtering acts as a frontline defence, identifying and neutralizing malicious content to safeguard your company’s data integrity and network security.

Blocked Attachments: Mitigating Risks

Cloudcode ATP’s attachment filtering diligently blocks certain file types known for their susceptibility to malicious activities. Here’s a glimpse into the threats associated with the blocked file extensions:

  • .htm, .shtm, .hta: These file types often harbor scripts or executable content that could exploit vulnerabilities.
  • .dll, .vbs, .js, .ps1: Executable or scripting files that pose a considerable risk if not carefully handled.
  • .docm, .pptm, .one: Office file formats prone to carrying macro-based malware.
  • .ico, .ani, .cur: Windows icon, animated cursor, and cursor files, historically exploited for vulnerabilities.
  • .exe, .bat, .com: Executable file extensions posing significant security risks.

By restricting these file types, cloudcode ATP prevents potential breaches and ensures that dangerous content doesn’t infiltrate your organization’s network.

Allowed Attachments: Balancing Safety and Functionality

While stringent filtering mitigates risks, cloudcode ATP also allows specific file types deemed safe for transmission. These include:

  • .jpg, .gif, .url, .txt: Image, text, and web shortcut files considered harmless for regular business communication.
  • .zip, .tgz, .bz2: Compressed archive files, often used for sharing multiple documents securely.
  • .docx, .ppt, .xlsx: Office file formats used for meaningful secure communication.

Allowing these file types enables seamless communication without compromising security.

At cloudcode, our focus remains on striking a balance between security and functionality. Our ATP-powered email attachment filtering ensures a robust defence mechanism against potential threats while allowing legitimate attachments to facilitate uninterrupted business communication.
