Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We, Tottori University, have been experiencing targeted attacks using malicious mails especially since fiscal year 2016.
Those malicious mails contain {it malwares} such as viruses themselves or down-loaders.
While some of those malwares are well-known to anti-virus softwares, others are not even to the state-of-the-art next-generation Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and/or Intrusion Prevention System (IPS).
There is no reasonable way especially for small organizations like us, who cannot employ the state-of-the-art anti-virus equipment, to detect and prevent such new-born malwares.
Those malwares then reach at end users, and end users may excute them and get infected.
We then did not know what to do, and we thought that what all we could do was just to wait for our members to get infected.
We, however, have found that there are not so many mails attached files.
We have then decided to detect all attached files in mails, and been trying to quarantine malwares based upon empirical approaches.
This paper present our findings, experiences and efforts.
