Content filtering is a mechanism that controls and secures vulnerabilities and malicious code transmitted over any available channel.

Channels commonly used are mainly e-mail, web traffic, file transfer or instant messaging. 

Encrypted traffic such as HTTPS web traffic is also a vulnerable entry point. This type of connection is often allowed to enter the enterprise infrastructure but seldom really controlled. Bad habits or misinformed end-users, who always trust self-signed certificates to view any content on the Internet could open a breach into your business security.

Possible approaches
