A cloud device is configured in an email transmission pathway. The cloud device receives an email attachment whose maliciousness status is determined to be unknown. The cloud device encrypts the email attachment and delivers the encrypted attachment to the recipient. When the recipient attempts to access the encrypted attachment, the cloud device re-determines the maliciousness status of the attachment. If the re-determined maliciousness status is benign, the cloud device allows the encrypted attachment to be decrypted and opened locally on the recipient's device. If the re-determined maliciousness status is still unknown, the cloud device provides a cloud-based viewing solution to the recipient using an isolation service.
