Media-Type Filter
Media-Type based filters located at HTTP/HTTPS proxy level should be able to detect media types exactly and
should not bypass files because of faked content types or unknown file name extensions etc.
Faked Media-Type Examples
QUICKTIME.GIF | ( HTTP | HTTPS ) | Renamed quicktime movie quicktime.mov -> quicktime.gif |
VIDEO.HTML | ( HTTP | HTTPS ) | Renamed mpeg video video.mpg -> video.html |
EICAR.JPEG | ( HTTP | HTTPS ) | Renamed malware test file (will not do any harm to your computer) eicar.com -> eicar.jpeg |
