Identify the file mime type using file header content and not using file extension

It is useful to identify and block users from uploading tampered/renamed/modified file extentions. 

Assume we have a file name called Test.pdf
During aspera file upload process, when we browse and select the above file aspera provide the type as application/pdf which is based on file extension.

If I rename the above file to Test.txt then it provides type as plain/text which is again based on file extension.

We need file mime type based on the file content or file header information and not based on file extension. In the above case I should always get type as application/pdf.
