Why we think so
2 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This installer carries a verified Famatech Corp. signature and was first seen on Dec 14, 2017. It has been submitted by 460 sources. Only AhnLab-V3, one of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it, flags it, as unwanted remote-administration software. Its installation behaviour matches a normal Radmin Server setup.
Only 1 of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file: AhnLab-V3 labels it unwanted Radmin software. None of the major antivirus engines detected anything. The signature from Famatech Corp. verifies, and the file has a long, wide distribution history. The combined sandbox summary shows the expected Radmin Server install: a firewall rule and a service for the remote-control server, with no recorded injection into other processes. No complete contacted-host reputation result was available. The main risk is how the product is used, because remote-access tools are often installed by intruders.
What We Detected
One of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it (AhnLab-V3) labels this installer unwanted Radmin software. All major antivirus engines reported no detection. The file carries a verified Famatech Corp. signature, was first seen on Dec 14, 2017, and has been submitted by 460 sources.
Threat Behavior
The sandbox runs show a standard Radmin Server installation. The installer sets up the RServer3 service and its driver, and adds a firewall rule allowing the remote-control server through. No complete contacted-host reputation result was available.
What To Do Now
If you or your IT team deliberately installed Radmin Server, this file is consistent with the genuine product. If Radmin Server appears on a system without your knowledge, treat it as unauthorised remote access. In that case, remove it, check for intrusion, and keep your security software enabled.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- Remote-access tools like Radmin Server are abused by attackers for silent remote control, and the sandbox ran this installer quietly with the licence pre-accepted. If it appears on a machine where nobody installed it, treat it as an intrusion.
- Our own history for this signer holds only one prior sample, and that sample was judged malicious, so the signer record gives no support either way.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Verified digital signature from Famatech Corp.
- Widely distributed: 460 submitters since Dec 14, 2017.
- None of the major antivirus engines flagged it.
- The installer adds a persistent remote-control service and a firewall exception, which attackers can abuse if they install it without the owner's consent.
- One engine labels it unwanted remote-administration software.

Signatures and behavior heuristics
Behavioral heuristics matched patterns associated with malware. Corroborating evidence determines how much weight they carry.
The sandbox recorded persistence through a service or scheduled task. Installers set these up legitimately for their own updaters and services, so this is context, not proof of malicious intent.
EvidenceRServer3 · raddrvv3VirusTotal's sandbox summary maps this run to MITRE T1055 (Process Injection), but no injected process of the sample's own was recorded (the analysis VM's own WMI adapter, crash handlers and Chrome updater are not counted). VirusTotal maps T1055 on about half of all files no engine flags, so the mapping alone is not evidence of injection.

How widely this file has been seen
Widely seen in the wild for a long time. High prior this is legitimate; isolated detections on common-old files are usually false positives.
