Blocking files based on content

tdracz — Wed, 02 Dec 2020 12:34:22 GMT

Hello,

I'm completely new to PAN, but we need to create a solution that blocks files based on content where the code that examines the content needs to be our custom code. For example the file could be sent to a microservice for examination and that service would determine whether or not to let that file through. Is that even possible ?

Regards,

Tadeusz

Wildfire can categorize and block or allow files based on the content, it is possible to achieve what you want with the anti-virus profile and wildfire.

Thank you for providing the direction, unfortunately I need to do the content analysis using my own code. Unfortunately, I haven't found in the documentation the way to do that.
