Why we think so
2 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This 64-bit library file shows no detections from any of the 74 engines, including every major antivirus engine. It is not packed, matched no malware-specific rules and is absent from public malware databases. It is unsigned and rarely seen, so check where it came from.
None of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, and all major antivirus engines that analysed it reported it clean. The antivirus analysis shows a normal section layout with moderate entropy and no packer or obfuscation wrapper. No public malware database or malware-specific rule matched the hash. The file is unsigned and has only a handful of submitters, and no sandbox run completed, so behaviour in the test run has not been observed. On balance, the evidence fits an ordinary software component.
What We Detected
None of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this 64-bit DLL. No public malware database or malware-specific rule matched it. The antivirus analysis shows a normal layout with no packing.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox run is available. The static technique labels describe routine library behaviour, such as system-information queries and module loading, and are common in legitimate software.
What To Do Now
The file appears to be an ordinary component. Because it is unsigned and rarely seen, keep it only if it came from the software it belongs to, and keep your antivirus protection enabled.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- The DLL is unsigned and rarely submitted, and no sandbox run completed, so behaviour in the test run has not been observed.
