Impact analysis when you override file and certificate reputations

Prev Next

You can analyze the impact analysis before you override a file or certificate reputation.

When you override a file that is prevalent, it generates many reputation change events that might impact the overall performance. When overriding a certificate, it impacts the signed files associated to that certificate.

Important

The impact analysis is only applicable on the files or certificates selected.

When you override a file or certificate, the confirmation dialog box includes an impact analysis of how the action affects your files and certificates. It includes a warning message with an assigned severity level if the action has a negative impact. This analysis allows you to safely override a file or a certificate reputation, keeping your TIE services ecosystem consistent and protected.

Tip

Running an override generates a significant number of reputation change events.
