On demand scan flagging ESET as a Potentially unsafe application


Recommended Posts

Hello, I recently created an on-demand scan task that took place over the past 24 hours in our org. While it found a few problems, it also seemed to make lots of noise about "Potentially unsafe applications". Upon investigation, all these detections appear to be part of the locally installed ESET software. Below is a copy/paste of one of the alerts. Is this indeed part of ESET? If yes, how does the community recommend we deal with these alerts?
