Looking for some info and discussion about filtering/denying through the use of MIME types, and more specifically content verification. How effective are these types of signatures/measures, dealing with cisco devices currently, but I guess the conversation could be expanded to other devices doing similiar things? I could see there being a lot of problems with 3rd party apps created files, such as mp3/jpg/doc/etc where they might set off a lot of false positives by not adhering strictly to the file standard, but most apps wouldnt have a problem with. But I haven't dealt with this type of thing enough to really have an opinion on it. Thoughts/suggestions? Thanks, _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
