Verdict Suspicious
Is ABPM(F)_ V5. 5. 5_ Setup. exe safe? Treat it as suspicious.
Unsigned installer with direct-IP contacts and one less reliable detection but no major consensus or malicious files it created.
Read the whole reasonShow less
Why Suspicious? One antivirus engine (Bkav) flags it; nothing else confirms it.
Limited evidence · One sign points to a problem; nothing else confirms it.
Treat as suspicious pending further verification; do not execute on production systems without additional vetting or a trusted source.
What to do now4 steps
Some signs point to a problem, but nothing confirms it is harmful. Treat it with caution.
What to do
Don't install it unless you're sure where it came from.
Check where you got it: an unexpected attachment, a link someone sent you or a re-upload is a red flag.
If you can't confirm where it came from, delete it. If you need the program, download it again from the publisher's own website.
If you already installed it
Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.

Why we think so
4 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
Single less reliable engine flags the file while 74 others are clean. Sandbox shows direct-IP connections without domains and two offensive MITRE techniques. No major agreement, no malicious dropped files, and rare prevalence leave the sample in mixed-signals territory.
The engine profile is dominated by a single less reliable detection with zero malicious flags from major antivirus engines, which normally points toward false positive. However, the sandbox behaviour includes direct-IP contact to seven addresses and two MITRE techniques commonly associated with privilege escalation and persistence. The file is unsigned, rare, and carries an installer hint but lacks any corroborating malicious family or external-intel hits. These conflicting signals prevent a clean safe or malicious determination.
What We Detected
75 engines reported; only Bkav returned a malicious label (W32.AIDetectMalware). No major antivirus engines flagged the sample. The file is unsigned and shows high-entropy sections typical of packed or obfuscated code, though no packer signature was identified.
Threat Behavior
Sandbox execution revealed direct-IP connections to seven addresses and zero DNS domains, triggering one of our behaviour rules. Two offensive MITRE techniques (T1134 token manipulation, T1547.001 registry run keys) were observed alongside typical installer background activity. Ten files it created were inspected; none carried malicious verdicts.
What To Do Now
Exercise caution with this rare unsigned installer. Run it in a controlled environment or obtain the file from an official vendor source if it claims to be ABPM blood-pressure monitoring software. Monitor for unexpected persistence or network activity.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- If the direct-IP contacts are legitimate Microsoft/Cloudflare devices (204.79.197.203 etc.), the rule-based may be a false positive for an installer using raw IP resolution.
- Unsigned installer with high-entropy sections could be a legitimate niche medical/blood-pressure tool (ABPM acronym) rather than malware.
- No major detections, no sandbox malicious verdict, and no dropped malicious files it created reduce the weight of the single less reliable flag.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 74/75 engines clean
- No malicious detections from major antivirus engines
- No malicious sandbox verdict
- No malicious files it created
- Unsigned binary
- Direct-IP network contacts without domains
- Offensive MITRE techniques observed
- Rare prevalence (only 2 submitters)

What the test run showed
What the file did on a test computer
Confirmed in the test run
Moderate concern: Contains packed or scrambled code that is harder to inspect (common in installers too).
Moderate concern: Ran commands or a script on the test computer.
Moderate concern: Checked whether it was running on a test computer.
Note: Read the user name of the test computer.
Note: Listed the programs running on the test computer.
Note: Talked to servers over the internet during the test run.
Note: Read basic details of the test computer, such as its Windows version.
Sandbox labels we could not confirm (common in safe files too)
Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as setting up auto-start; no auto-start entry was recorded.
Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as changing how Windows loads code; nothing confirms it.
This file was run on a test computer (a sandbox), not on yours. Labels we could not confirm are listed so you can see them, but they are not treated as evidence against the file.
