∗∗∗ A Safe Excel Sheet Not So Safe ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
I discovered a nice sample yesterday. This excel sheet was found in a mail flagged as “suspicious” by a security appliance. The recipient asked to release the mail from the quarantine because “it was sent from a known contact”. Before releasing such a mail from the quarantine, the process in place is to have a quick look at the file to ensure that it is safe to be released.
