Web Appliance - Download Types

We're actually doing some tests with the virtual web appliance (v3.9.4.1). My question is regarding download types; you can block/warn/allow file types, which is fine. But in this specific case, .msp files are being categorized as microsoft word (being allowed) instead of Windows Installer (being blocked). Is there a way to change the file type category of a specific extension?

Thanks.

  • Hi Uncleben6667, 

    I think you should be aware of the full picture: /search?q= 56072

    Take this view however you wish. As far as I'm concerned this is a vulneribility as the scanner decides to ignore files that are known to harbour Mac OSX malware. Which, even Sophos have to agree, is on the rise. 

    Anyhow, I thought I'd share this to highlight how the downloading scanning works...
