If you are unsure whether a file is malicious, click Identify or Analyze to submit the file to Neural-X Threat Intelligence for further analysis and identification.

The Neural-X service provides file identification capabilities backed by security experts, sandboxes, and engines, and analyzes files using a Cloud-Based Engine and the collected intelligence. It provides more accurate identification results and a closed-loop approach to event handling.

When the NovaGuard manager is connected to the Internet, any detected infected files are automatically identified by Neural-X, which will then provide

relevant results. In cases where files cannot be automatically identified, you can manually submit them to Neural-X for identification.
