Changing content filter settings

Assigning content filters

There are three different settings for the content filter in NoSpamProxy Cloud which process email attachments with varying degrees of strictness.

You can assign content filter sets

• as default partner settings,
• for individual partner domains,
• as the default setting for corporate users or
• for individual Active Directory groups

.

TIP: We recommend that you initially make these settings the default for partners or corporate users. This makes it easier for you to keep an overview and avoid faulty configurations. In any case, you should select the filter Strict/Streng for this default setting and only make absolutely necessary, granular adjustments for partner domains or AD groups.

Changing settings

To change the settings for the content filter, proceed as follows:

1. Do one of the following:
   • Go to Identities > Corporate users > Content filtering.
   • Go to Identities > Partners > Default partner settings.
   • Go to Identities > Partners and select the partner domain whose content filtering you want to edit.
2. Click Modify.
3. Select the content filter settings for inbound and outbound emails. See Changing content filter settings.
   
   
4. Click Save.

NOTE: If no content filter is available for selection here, no content filters have been created for you yet. In this case, contact your reseller/managed service provider directly.

Inbound emails with sandboxing

NOTE: The content filter settings Medium - Sandboxing and Strict - Sandboxing are available if you have purchased a licence for the NoSpamProxy Sandbox Service. The Sandbox Service increases the likelihood that harmful content will be detected.
