Archive Passwords Parent topic

Suspicious files must always be handled with caution. Trend Micro recommends adding such files to a password-protected archive file before transporting across the network.
Virtual Analyzer uses user-specified passwords to extract files from archive files.
To use this feature, add and enable a basic file submission rule with the following criteria:
  • Detection type: Files with no detections
  • File type: Selectable file types to be decrypted with the listed passwords
If Virtual Analyzer is unable to extract encrypted files using any of the specified passwords, Deep Discovery Inspector displays the status “Unsupported file type” and removes the archive file from the queue.
Note
Note
Passwords can only be used for the first encryption layer. Decryption of SMTP attachments is not supported.
Deep Discovery Inspector stores archive file passwords as unencrypted text.
