Explanation:

The type of attack that is prevented by configuring file reputation filtering and file analysis features is zero-day. Zero-day attacks are those that exploit unknown vulnerabilities in software or systems before they are patched or fixed. File reputation filtering and file analysis features help to protect against zero-day attacks by checking the reputation of files attached to email messages and sending them to a cloud-based service for dynamic analysis.
