Is my upload scanned for viruses?
- The size, the type and the number of files have limits. YourCA accepts only formats it can read.
- Then YourCA reads the contents.
- A file named as a PDF, a Word file or a spreadsheet may contain a program, an archive or a web page. YourCA refuses it and never stores it. So nobody can file a renamed executable on a job.
- YourCA gives a stored file back as a download under the type its extension promises, not the type the file claimed. Photos and PDFs still open in place.
- A file attached to an email you CC or forward to a job goes through the same three checks, with the same limits. YourCA refuses it for the same reasons. There is no second, easier way in.
Worth knowing
Treat a document from a party you do not know the same way as in your email. On an email to a job, this is exactly true: the sender shown is only what the message claimed about itself. After you start to CC a job, the builder and whoever they copy in can write to it. If a file you know is safe does not upload, first check it opens on your own machine. Then send it to admin@yourca.ai.
