New Delhi: Popular chat platform Discord has announced that it will switch to temporary file links for all users by the end of the year to fight malware.
Links to those files will begin to refresh every 24 hours by the end of this year to block malware delivery.
The company told Bleeping Computer that it is evolving its approach to “attachment content delivery network (CDN) URLs in order to create a safer and more secure experience for users”.
“In particular, this will help our safety team restrict access to flagged content, and generally reduce the amount of malware distributed using our CDN," the company said.
