Is ISM 321 - Ford Database (1).accdb safe?
No engine detected a threat in this Access database, although its very recent appearance and missing runtime analysis warrant ordinary opening precautions.
All 75 engines returned without a malicious or suspicious detection, including 17 tier-1 products. The file is newly observed and was not executed in a sandbox, so open it only if the database was expected and came from a trusted source.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 engines returned without a malicious or suspicious detection, including 17 tier-1 products. The file is newly observed and was not executed in a sandbox, so open it only if the database was expected and came from a trusted source.
The strongest evidence is the absence of detections across 75 engines, with all 17 participating tier-1 engines reporting no detection. The file is an Access database, so executable code-signing expectations do not apply. No sandbox run completed, meaning macros, queries, or other active database content were not behaviorally evaluated. The sample was first observed today and has only one submission, limiting historical confidence. Researcher-rule coverage was also incomplete because YARAify timed out, while MalwareBazaar and CIRCL returned no hits.
What We Detected
No malicious or suspicious detections were reported across 75 engines. Seventeen tier-1 engines, including Avast, BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, Kaspersky, and Microsoft, reported no detection. MalwareBazaar and CIRCL also returned no match.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available, so the database's runtime behavior was not observed. A complete contacted-host reputation result is likewise unavailable. Access databases can contain active content, so the scan result does not independently prove that every macro, query, or embedded object is harmless.
What To Do Now
Open the database only if it was expected and obtained from a trusted source. Keep endpoint protection enabled, and do not enable macros or other active content unless the document's purpose and sender are verified.
Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
- behaviour=null means no runtime evidence is available to confirm whether embedded database content performs harmful actions.
- contactedHosts=null means no complete host-reputation cross-check is available.
- externalIntel.availability.yaraify=error leaves a researcher-rule coverage gap.
- The file is zero days old with prevalence.timesSubmitted=1, so its reputation history is minimal.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 engines reported malicious or suspicious findings
- All 17 tier-1 engines reported no detection
- MalwareBazaar returned no match
- CIRCL returned no match
- No brand mismatch or adversarial text contamination was detected
- First observed today with only one recorded submission
- No completed runtime observation
- No complete contacted-host reputation result
- YARAify researcher-rule lookup timed out
- Access databases may contain active content
Opening is reasonable if the database was expected and its source is trusted. Keep security protection enabled and leave active content disabled unless independently verified.

What to do now
This file appears low risk based on the evidence available now.
- Recovery step 01
Open it only when its sender or download source is one you independently trust.
- Recovery step 02
A clean result reduces known risk, but it cannot guarantee that every new or targeted threat has been detected.
- Recovery step 03
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on so you stay protected.
