Protection Against Malicious Files Behind Links

The Anti-Malware security engine emulates the files behind direct download links before delivering them to end users. To prevent attacks in which the file behind the link is altered after the email is sent, this inspection will also take place when users click on such links after they are re-written by Click-Time Protection.

If the file behind the link is found to be malicious, and the Click-Time Protection security engine is configured to block it, access to the file will be blocked.

To configure the workflow in the Click-Time Protection security engine, see Configuring Click-Time Protection Engine.
