False malicious activities / windows update

Hi, one of my customers received two alerts "Collaborative Detect & Response found malicious activities"

Checking the details, they look like Windows Updates, coming from a Redmond IP.

    the problem is that the CDR makes a DESTROY FILE
    and this could in my opinion create problems for microsoft update

    @Notarmic: How have you reported the problem to the antimalware manufacturer?
    Is there a special website available where one can report false positives?

    I have issue before. But I noticed that log does not happen anymore.
    I have signature version 2.1.3.20220725.0 .
    Do you all still have the issue after install latest signature?

    The Signature Virus will be excluded in the next signature version.
    Thank you all for your feedback.

    just updated the signature this morning and now the Gen.Variant.MSILHeracles.d9848e25 has stopped but now we have this new one:

    Gen.Variant.Barys.413913b9

    and we still have this one:

    Wildcore.Virus.4a4ec363

    Virus infected SSI:N Type:Anti-Malware Signature Virus:Wildcore.Virus.4a4ec363 File:Microsoft.SkypeApp_15.86.3409.0_neutral_~_kzf8qxf38zg5c.Ms

    signature now is: 2.1.3.20220726.0

    is this going to be fixed with the next signature update? these issues happened already 2-3 times to our clients with ATP and CDR enabled (and to be conservative we usually configure CDR-Malware detection to BLOCK clients network communication so when this happens clients' PC are blocked and cannot work). please fix these issues or change malware definitions manufacturer cause clients' trust into Zyxel products is falling down due to that and various vulnerabilities that are continuosly discovered

    The Virus signature "Wildcore.Virus.4a4ec363" will be removed in the next signature version. 
    For the virus "Gen.Variant.Barys.413913b9" . You can add the whilelist for it if it impact the service.

    And provide the entire packets for us when you try to reproduce it. Thank you
    Kevin
