Hello guys,
We have made a small change in the Cyber Capture flow. On the first Cyber Capture dialog, that informs the user about the fact, that the file is rare and need to be analyzed on the backend, we have removed the "Run anyway" button. We've received some complains from users and testers, that this is too dangerous, and in case it really is a virus may be a security risk for the user.
In the current version, the original "Run anyway" button is replaced with the "I trust this file" link, which still keeps the file inside Cyber Capture analysis, and also sends this users opinion back to our servers. It may be then taken into the account and make the analysis faster.
While be believe, this new workflow is more secure, we do understand that many of you are power users and want to be in charge. For this purpose we have added the new option into settings - it controls whether the "Run anyway" option is available or not.
Some of you have also suggested the file to be executed in Sandbox only - we are still working with this idea. I quite like it, but it has some technical issues as well - what should we do when the downloaded file is an installer, the installation may fail, or appear to succeed but things will not work as expected -- e.g. no integration with the system will ever be visible. This seems to be somewhat challenging when presented to less advanced users, but we are still working with this idea.
Hope this helps. Lukas.
So, if I understand this right, you now strictly have to wait for the CyberCapture verdict? You can only give sort of an opinion on it if you click the "I trust this file".
Oh, now I get it. Default CC setup is now block until verdict is received without "Run anyway" option. But you can switch it back to original design if you enable that under CC settings. Got it.
What is the average time for CC file analysis? Would be nice if user could see an average analysis time in CC dialog, so you know when to roughly expect the verdict. It's a bit annoying not knowing whether it'll take 5 minutes, half an hour, 1 hour or 3 hours.
