Ask HN: How can I security-sandbox email attachment opening?

gusfoo Monday, September 18, 2023

What I want is to have a service open all of my email attachments before I do. If it's a RAR, ZIP, PDF, DOCX etc. then it gets opened in the normal applications, as do the archive contents. And this takes place in a similar environment to our desktop environment which is undetectable as a sandbox.

Then I get a report of any unusual disk or network activity that occurred. For example I don't expect opening a RAR file to cause network activity[1]

We're happy to pay what it takes for this kind of thing, and I suspect a lot of people are. Is there such a service out there?
