MT AI Engine · our arbiter

The verdict, reasoned out.

Not a rules engine. The MT AI Engine reads every signal we collected, weighs them against history, and commits to an answer.

30%Confidence
Exploratory
Reasoning

Our AI analyst is temporarily unavailable, so we've applied a conservative fallback: all 67 antivirus engines that scanned this file report it as clean. With that much coverage, the file looks safe — but re-scan in a few minutes to get the full AI assessment.

Key signals · 3

Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

  1. AI arbiter unavailable (reason: grok_exception:This operation was aborted)

  2. engines.tier1Malicious=0

  3. engines.reporting=67

Points in its favour
  • 67 antivirus engines all report this file as clean.
What to do

The file appears safe based on antivirus coverage. Re-scan for the full AI assessment.

Sources disagree

1 contradiction resolved by the scoring engine

MT AI Engine read "safe", displayed verdict is "unknown"
A ground-truth gate (admin override, MalwareBazaar, empty-file) or the low-confidence display rule shifted the final call.
Displayed verdict tracks the harder evidence.

Files are processed in a streaming pass-through — MalwareTips never stores the binary on its servers. Only the scan result (hash, detections, verdict) is retained so the next person who scans the same file gets an instant answer. If you ran this file on your computer and are worried, scan your system with an up-to-date antivirus and change critical passwords from a different device.
