If a file turns out to be malicious, it is blocked for all users participating in ESET LiveGrid® as a suspicious object. In the Submitted files section of the remote management console, administrators get a brief report of the observed sample's behavior for each submitted file. See the detailed description of How detection layers work. Documents and PDF files with active content (macros, javascript) are not submitted by default. Administrators or users can define the scope of files that are submitted and the retention period of the file in the ESET cloud. Email attachments are handled separately and are subject to submission to ESET LiveGuard Advanced. Malicious samples or suspicious spam emails are submitted to ESET LiveGrid®.

Submitted samples are run in a sandbox and are evaluated by our advanced malware detection engines. Suspicious samples that are not yet confirmed as malicious and may potentially carry malware are automatically submitted to the ESET cloud. If you are an ESET user experiencing any issues with your ESET service and ESET Status Portal does not indicate them, contact ESET Technical Support.
