Why Am I Not Able To Take Actions On Threats With 'Detected' Statuses - Connect IT Community | Kaseya
<main> <article class="userContent"> <p><strong>Question</strong></p> <p>Why Am I Not Able To Take Actions On Threats With 'Detected' Statuses?</p> <p><strong>Answer</strong></p> <p>According to our <a rel="nofollow" href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fhelp.kaseya.com%2Fwebhelp%2FEN%2Fav%2F9030000%2F%2333900.htm">documentation</a>, the status <strong>Detected </strong>indicates that Kaspersky made a detection but no action was taken: not quarantined, deleted, etc. This can potentially be an active threat.</p> <p>What this means is that the threat was scanned, attempted to automatically take an action on, and sent to Kaspersky's <strong>unprocessed objects repository</strong>.</p> <p><img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6032361/uploads/migrated/PWKUB2HZDG3I/screen-shot-2016-12-20-at-10-56-33-am.png" alt="" class="embedImage-img importedEmbed-img"></img></p> <p>An unprocessed object cannot be automatically removed from its repository. This is a security functionality of the Kaspersky engine to prevent potential threats from being reintroduced into a system. To resolve this issue, it will be necessary for you to manually remove the files from the unprocessed objects repository by rescanning the files.</p> <p>Once the file has been removed from this repository, the threat will change status in the VSA.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </article> </main>
