Enabling Certified Safe Software Service

About this task

Certified Safe Software Service allows Behavior Monitoring to reduce the likelihood of false positive detections. It queries Trend Micro cloud servers to verify whether a program detected by either Malware Behavior Blocking or Event Monitoring is a known safe application before permitting user access.

Navigate to Common Tasks > Core Protection Module > Core Protection Module - Enable Certified Safe Software Service option.

Note: With Certified Safe Software Service enabled, an intermittent Internet connection or the wrong proxy setting can cause programs to appear unresponsive. This occurs when Behavior Monitoring crosschecks a detection using Certified Safe Software Service but is unable to receive an immediate response from Trend Micro servers. Ensure that clients have the correct client proxy settings before enabling Certified Safe Software Service.
