MT AI Engine · our arbiter

The verdict, reasoned out.

Not a rules engine. The MT AI Engine reads every signal we collected, weighs them against history, and commits to an answer.

High
Reasoning

The complete absence of malicious flags from every engine tier, combined with clean sandbox and external-intel results, outweighs the file's rarity. Ambient MITRE techniques are consistent with ordinary batch scripting. No adversarial filename or other red flags exist.

Key signals · 3

Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

Files are processed in a streaming pass-through — MalwareTips never stores the binary on its servers. Only the scan result (hash, detections, verdict) is retained so the next person who scans the same file gets an instant answer. If you ran this file on your computer and are worried, scan your system with an up-to-date antivirus and change critical passwords from a different device.
