    Hello All.
    I’ve recently been asked to enable the ability for all users on my EE Discussion Forum site to be allowed to post attachments to their forum posts. Currently, we only allow site admins to upload attachments to their posts.
    How do you all handle this to mitigate the risk of malware being introduced in an attachment? 
    Does virus checking SW prove sufficient?
    I’m not a server admin so appreciate any input you have. 
    Thank you.
