Add controls to the types of files uploaded.

Some clients have raised concerns about files being submitted with macros. For security purposes, they have raised the idea that it would be good to control the types of files people can submit. Particularly when using the surveys module as they don't have control over what suppliers for example could submit.

    Thank you for raising this idea.

    Envizi already contains controls to prevent malicious files from being uploaded to the platform. However, these controls are common across all clients and not something we currently plan to allow clients or partners to configure. These controls apply to files uploaded to any part of the platform, including the surveys module. If there is a specific scenario where you believe the existing controls have not worked, please raise a support ticket with our team so we can investigate.
