VMware Security Specialist — Question 3

An Endpoint Standard administrator finds a binary in the environment and decides to manually add the file hash to the Banned List.
Which reputation does the file now have?

Answer options

• A. Suspect/Heuristic Malware
• B. Company Black
• C. Adware/PUP Malware
• D. Known Malware

Correct answer: A

Explanation

By adding the file hash to the Banned List, the file is classified as Suspect/Heuristic Malware, indicating that it is considered suspicious based on its behavior or characteristics. The other options, such as Company Black, Adware/PUP Malware, and Known Malware, do not accurately represent the status of the file after being manually banned.
