If no good/bad determination can be made on a given file, the agent monitors it extremely closely and records (“journals”) its actions. If that file tries to modify the system in such a way that could not be reverted automatically, the administrator receives a notification and the change is blocked. This behavior monitoring engine also ensures that threats that bypass local offline protection cannot do lasting damage.

If the file in question is eventually determined to be malicious, then the agent will alert the administrator and/or user, then automatically quarantine and address the threat. It will then revert any journaled file and system changes as part of the remediation process.
