Submitted Applications
- The 'Submitted Applications' area lets you manage files that you have uploaded to Comodo for analysis.
- You can submit suspicious files, files with an 'unknown' trust rating, or false-positive files (those files you feel CCAV has incorrectly identified as malware).
- Once uploaded, the files will undergo a series of automated tests to establish whether or not they are trustworthy. After manual classification by Comodo Labs, they will be added to global white or black list accordingly.
