Norton File Insight Not Triggered

Any update on this?

Just curious to know if this is by design or a bug.

Cheers

Hello @BShh
fwiw ~
Just reported this “issue” to Norton support over on Xtwitter.

Thanks for the update, bjm.

This still isn’t working. Thought it might be a deliberate decision, but download Intelligence is still an option and turned on.

Hello @BShh

v24 Download Intelligence differs from v22 Download Intelligence → Download Insight

v24 Download Intelligence → Detects and analyzes suspicious files when you attempt to run or download then from the internet.

v24 Browser Protection and Auto-Protect seems to (with my testing) be doing the heavy lifting. My v24 Security History seldom reports Download Intelligence event.

===========================================

Note: v24 - Download Intelligence detects and analyzes suspicious files

Good spot, @bjm. I still miss the reassurance of downloading any file and having it pop up as safe (or not), but I can understand why they’ve changed that.

Good to know. Thanks.

Good to know, @bjm. I don’t have anything in that section yet, but will check it periodically.

Yeah, I’ve tested samples from URLhaus.
Browser Protection &or Auto-Protect block samples.

for example:
