You can use this function to detect if a string is "binary".
<?php
/**
* Determine whether the given value is a binary string by checking to see if it contains only
printable characters.
*
* @param string $value
*
* @return bool
*/
function isBinary($value): bool
{
// remove "unprintable" whitespace characters (tabs, newlines etc)
$string = preg_replace('/\s/', '', (string)$value);
return !empty($string) && !ctype_print($string);
}
?>
