Riskware detection allows you to identify files that are similar to malware, but are not intended to be malicious. A file that is not a malicious threat might display behavior that affects threat detection, such as installing unwanted programs, modifying system settings, or reducing the overall performance of the appliance. Types of riskware include Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs), Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs), adware, and hacker tools.
