Why we think so
2 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
Only 1 of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this installer, a generic VBA32 label, while all 18 major engines found nothing. The file is validly signed by Shenzhen iMyFone Technology Co., Ltd and has been submitted by 759 sources since it was first seen on Dec 19, 2024. The combined sandbox verdict was clean.
The single detection comes from a less reliable engine and uses a generic network-trojan bucket, not a named malware family. Every major engine stayed silent. The file carries a valid signature from the iMyFone company named in the file name, and it is widely distributed, with 759 distinct submitters. In the sandbox runs, the installer wrote its own configuration and language files and iMyfone registry keys, with no injection or persistence recorded. The 23 contacted hosts we cross-checked held no malicious or suspicious entries, and no external intelligence lists the file.
What We Detected
1 of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it (VBA32) flagged the file with a generic network-trojan label. None of the major engines, including Kaspersky, ESET, BitDefender and Avast, flagged it. The installer has a valid signature from Shenzhen iMyFone Technology Co., Ltd.
Threat Behavior
In the sandbox runs, the installer created iMyFone program folders, language and log files, and vendor registry keys. No process injection or persistence was recorded, and the combined sandbox verdict was clean. None of the 23 contacted hosts is known to be malicious.
What To Do Now
If you obtained this installer from iMyFone's official website, it fits the profile of the genuine product. Keep your antivirus enabled during installation.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- A community annotation tags the file with defence-evasion and persistence labels and a high threat score, but the sandbox runs recorded no persistence and no high-risk techniques.
- The signer has no stored history with us and is not on our trusted-publisher list, so the signature alone does not vouch for the file.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Valid code signature from Shenzhen iMyFone Technology Co., Ltd
- Widely distributed: 759 distinct submitters since Dec 19, 2024
- None of the 18 major engines flagged the file
- The combined sandbox verdict was clean, with no high-risk techniques
- No contacted host has a malicious or suspicious reputation
- One less reliable engine flags the file with a generic trojan label.
- The signing company has no stored history in our records.
