If a downloaded file is named file.jpg but is a Windows executable, how will the ProxySG handle this file?

The handling of a downloaded file identified as a JPEG image but containing executable content primarily relies on the policies set within the ProxySG system. These policies can include various configurations regarding content types, file extensions, and security protocols. For instance, administrators can define specific rules dictating how certain file types or behaviors are treated based on their actual content rather than the file extension alone.

If the policy allows for the inspection of executable content masquerading as images, the system may flag or block it. Conversely, if the policy is set to trust files based on their names or certain attributes, it may allow the file to pass through without additional scrutiny. Thus, the outcome of handling such a downloaded file hinges on the specific policies implemented, making this option the most accurate representation of how ProxySG operates under varying configurations.
