Deep Discovery Advisor analyzes messages and sends the analysis result to IMSVA as a risk rating. This risk rating works with the Security Level settings configured in the Deep Discovery Advisor Configuration screen to determine the action that IMSVA takes on a message.
The following table contains the security levels and the corresponding Deep Discovery Advisor risk ratings that trigger an action from IMSVA.
