Xcitium Enterprise Admin Guide - View Contained Applications

View Contained Threats

Click 'Security' > 'Endpoint Security' > 'Contained Threats' > 'Containment Logs'

The container is a secure environment in which files with an 'unknown' trust rating are run. 'Unknown' files have not yet been classified as either 'safe' or 'malware'.

Contained applications are not permitted to modify files, user data or other processes on the host machine.

You can also submit unknown applications to Valkyrie, Xcitium's file analysis system. Valkyrie will test the file and attempt to classify it as 'safe' or 'malware'.

An application could be run inside the container because:

It was auto-contained by rules in the Xcitium configuration profile applied to the endpoint. See 'Containment Settings' in Create Windows Profiles for more details about containment rules in a profile.

It was auto-contained by local Xcitium Client Security rules on the endpoint.

The endpoint user ran the program inside the container on a 'one-off' basis. This can be helpful to test the behavior of new executables that have they downloaded.

You can view all programs that ran inside the container from the 'Containment' interface. Admins can also view the activity of processes started by contained applications. Admins have the option to rate a contained file as trusted or malicious.

Open the containment list interface:

Click 'Security' > 'Endpoint Security' > 'Contained Threats' > 'Containment Logs'

Select group to view contained programs on devices in that group

Or

Select 'Show all' to view all contained programs
