Dynamic analysis for all Mac OS X files is only supported in the Advanced WildFire Global (U.S.) and Europe Cloud regions.
** ZIP files are not directly forwarded to the Advanced Wildfire cloud for analysis. Instead, they are first decoded by the firewall, and files that match the WildFire Analysis profile criteria are separately forwarded for analysis.
