Does anyone use Cylance as a anti-virus/anti-malware tool? Our company migrated from Trendmicro to Cylance and all of a sudden (on Windows 10 PCs), some of our Powerbuilder compiled executables are now being blocked by Cylance and deemed as unsafe.
Even our simplest applications where it interacts with a SQL Server database through datawindows are being blocked. From what I understand, Cylance uses a combination of behaviors and virus signatures to detect if an application is deemed dangerous.
I'm just curious if anyone else has ran into this issue. We are having to manually unblock all of our applications within Cylance right now to get our applications to work.
**Update on some discoveries I made. I created a brand new PB application. One blank window and the open event of the application opens the blank window. The very first time I compiled the application to create the executable, Cylance immediately marked it as "Dangerous" and quarantined the .exe file.
I'm curious now on if Powerbuilder 2017 R3 is the culprit here. Maybe something to do with how PB compiles the application that makes Cylance think it is somehow dangerous.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Yes we already have group policies in place to do various things. It is just a bit annoying because it seems to be random. Some of our compiled executeables work while others are blocked with virtually no indication on why Cylance is flagging it as dangerous. It is easy enough to have our security team unblock the applications, but it seems to be unpredictable at best.
My question: Would it still block from creating executable, at least I should be able to finish creating executable successfully and then block the .exe later right? Why am I not able to build the executable successfully?
