Massive MS Defender Issue
Posted: Thu Feb 01, 2024 4:34 am
Hello.
Lately I am getting dozens of emails claiming my software contains a Trojan.
Of course that isn't the case but when I went to investigate, Microsoft Defender flags EVERYTHING (no matter how complex or simple the program is) as:
Microsoft - Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml
I cannot find any way to get around this detection. VirusTotal has usual suspects (bad AVs) who give clear false positives but this one is ugly since it is "Microsoft" and it says "Trojan".
I tried creating Hello World in C#, packing it with latest Enigma and virustotal immediately shows Microsoft detect (+ bad AVs).
Anyone knows of anything that can be done here?
Thank you,
Regards.
