Key findings
A focused interpretation of the evidence, relationships and observation history that matter most.
High-confidence evidence. Related indicators in this report: 14. Review the supporting evidence before taking action.
Malicious. A limited set of engine detections is present (17%).
VirusSign reports 92% confidence. Review this alongside engine detections and relationship evidence.
Classification includes type hacktool and family connectwise.
14 related indicators are shown across 4 relationship group(s). Additional relationship intelligence is available through API and data access.
15 timestamped observations are arranged from 2012-12-24 to 2076-08-11. These are observation or metadata times, not execution order.
Why this verdict
Review the reported detections, analysis confidence and supporting context.
VirusSign reports high analysis confidence alongside a low or unreported engine detection rate. These are different measures; review the supporting classification and relationships.
Reported engine detection rate. A low rate alone does not establish that the indicator is benign.
VirusSign analysis confidence; separate from detection rate and actor-association confidence.
4 relationship group(s) provide pivot and infrastructure context.
Classification context: type hacktool, family connectwise.
Last seen today.
Signals reflect the intelligence returned in this report. Missing values mean not reported, not zero. Related indicators are investigation leads, not proof of shared malicious activity.
