We have been working on this for just one week and with just one company, Microsoft, yet results look very promising: over 6000 false positives have been fixed. ![]() This is just a quick measure to make sure the false positives do not mislead users looking at the report, as said, these mistaken detections are also shared with the pertinent vendors in order for them to fix. ![]() Hopefully this addition results in more secure users world-wide.Īs you can see, not only a trusted source dialog is displayed, mistaken detections are also dropped from the positives count and degraded to the bottom of the report.
