Verdict Safe
Is Easy
Only MaxSecure raised a generic detection among 75 engines, while major antivirus engines were silent and the completed sandbox run produced a clean result.
Read the whole reasonShow less
Moderate evidence · No engine flags it, but no publisher signature confirms who made it.

We found nothing harmful in this file.
Run it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on.

Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
The single generic MaxSecure alert is isolated and unsupported by any major antivirus engine, making a false positive likely. One completed sandbox run returned clean, and all observed contacts received full reputation coverage without a malicious or suspicious match, though the unsigned status and two offensive behavior mappings justify normal caution.
Only 1 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the executable, and that alert came from MaxSecure with a generic rule-based label. No major antivirus engines detected it, which strongly favors an isolated false positive. The completed sandbox run returned clean, and the fully covered host-reputation check found no malicious or suspicious contacts among the observed hosts. The antivirus analysis found an unpacked, low-entropy .NET executable rather than an obscured payload. However, it is unsigned, and the runtime trace mapped and listed interaction with WMIADAP.EXE, so execution should still be limited to a controlled environment when the source is uncertain.
What We Detected
MaxSecure was the only engine among 75 to flag the file, using the generic label “Trojan.Malware.300983.susgen.” No major antivirus engines reported a detection, and there was no corroborated malware-family or hacking tool identification.
Threat Behavior
One completed sandbox run returned clean. It nevertheless mapped T1548 and T1562.001 and listed interaction with WMIADAP.EXE, so those observations are meaningful counter-signals rather than proof of ordinary behavior. All 16 distinct observed domain and IP contacts were covered by the host-reputation check, with no malicious or suspicious matches; two contacts were identified as analysis-environment background traffic. Three dropped files lack saved verdicts and therefore remain unverified.
What To Do Now
Confirm that the file came from the expected developer or distribution channel and keep security software enabled. If its origin cannot be established, test it only in an isolated environment before using it on a production system.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The executable is unsigned, leaving no verified publisher identity or clean signer history.
- The runtime trace mapped privilege-escalation and security-control-impairment techniques, and listed injection into WMIADAP.EXE; these findings warrant caution despite the clean sandbox verdict.
- Three dropped files have no saved verdict, so their safety remains unverified rather than established.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Only 1 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it raised an alert, and it was a generic less reliable detection.
- No major antivirus engines flagged the sample.
- The completed sandbox run returned clean.
- Every distinct observed network contact received reputation coverage, with no malicious or suspicious match.
- The antivirus analysis found no packer, high-entropy code, or likely-packing indicator.
- The Windows executable is unsigned and has no verified publisher history.
- The test run mapped privilege escalation and impairment of security controls.
- The trace listed interaction with the Windows WMI performance process.
