Why we think so
0 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
Zero detections across 75 engines, no offensive techniques observed, and medium prevalence over four years support a clean classification.
All 75 reporting engines returned clean results, including 17 major antivirus engines. The unsigned status is neutral for a file with no detections and no brand-mismatch claims. Sandbox execution recorded only techniques common in legitimate software and no malicious verdict. Medium prevalence and long history without similar-hash matches further reduce risk.
What We Detected
75 antivirus engines scanned the sample; none returned a malicious or suspicious result. The file is an unsigned 64-bit Windows executable first seen in 2022 with medium prevalence.
Threat Behavior
One sandbox execution recorded eight MITRE techniques common in legitimate software and no offensive techniques. No domains were contacted; a single IPv6 address was reached, but host-reputation coverage is unavailable. No files it created or persistence indicators were observed.
What To Do Now
The file can be considered safe for normal use. Keep security software enabled and avoid running unsigned executables from untrusted sources as a general precaution.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- contactedHosts is null — host-reputation cross-check was not completed, so the single IPv6 contact cannot be confirmed clean or malicious.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Zero malicious detections across 75 reporting engines
- No offensive MITRE techniques observed
- Medium prevalence with long clean history
