The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 74 engines returned clean results on a first-seen spreadsheet. No sandbox or external-intel data contradicts that finding.
The file is a 228 kB MS Excel spreadsheet submitted for the first time today. Every engine tier remained silent, including 17 tier-1 products. No code-signing, sandbox, or external-intel signals exist for this file type, and no heuristics fired. While the lack of runtime data leaves behaviour unverified, the complete absence of malicious detections across a broad engine set supports a safe classification.
What We Detected
74 engines scanned the file; none returned a malicious or suspicious result. The spreadsheet carries no digital signature and no sandbox trace is available.
Threat Behavior
No malicious indicators were observed in static analysis. No YARA rules, CIRCL entries, or MalwareBazaar records match the sample.
What To Do Now
Keep endpoint protection enabled. Open the file only if it originates from a trusted sender and macro execution is disabled.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- Zero detections could reflect low coverage for .xls files rather than proven safety; absence of sandbox data leaves runtime behaviour unverified.
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 74 engines
- No external intelligence hits
The file can be considered safe for normal use, but treat any unexpected macro prompts with caution.
Behavior
Plain-English impact first, then the observed runtime evidence.
Runtime behavior was not available
The report does not treat a missing runtime observation as a clean result.
Detection & Forensics

Detection sources at a glance
The available sources did not agree on a named threat category.
MalwareBazaar, YARAify, and CIRCL hashlookup completed and returned no entries for this hash.

How widely this file has been seen
Barely seen in the wild and first surfaced recently. That limits reputation evidence, but rarity alone is not proof of malware.

What to do now
This file appears low risk based on the evidence available now.
Open it only when its sender or download source is one you independently trust.
A clean result reduces known risk, but it cannot guarantee that every new or targeted threat has been detected.
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on so you stay protected.
