How to make a complain to Kaspersky security network.

[Kuser7985Sh]

I recently reset my PC and started installing the usual stuff that I need for work. Daz Studio (very popular 3D rendering app) and Ren'Py (arguably the most popular visual novel-making engine) and Kaspersky added both these applications into the high-restricted group (intrusion prevention). I'm aware that you can manually add applications to the trusted group and make it work, but the thing I don't understand is these two programmes were previously trusted by KSN, and K added them as trusted just a few weeks ago.

So how can I make a complaint to KSN?

Kaspersky premium 21.20.8.505 version

 

Thank you.

1. So how can I make a complaint to KSN?

 

Hello @Kuser7985Sh, 

Welcome again!

• Correct - currently the executables are *untrusted* - even tho Daz Studio & Ren'Py *sites* are *trusted* by KSN -> https://opentip.kaspersky.com/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.renpy.org%2F/?tab=lookup; https://opentip.kaspersky.com/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.daz3d.com%2Fget_studio/?tab=lookup

1. Zip the Daz Studio & Ren'Py executables, password protect the zip files - use either MALWARE or INFECTED, log a case with: Kaspersky Customer Service -  https://support.kaspersky.com/b2c#contacts - fill in the template as shown. Request Kaspersky Customer Service assign the case to Kaspersky Virus Lab experts for analysis, requesting they *add* Daz & Ren exes to KSN -  *Include the zip-archive password - for the Virus Lab experts. Include a *detailed history*:

Please share the outcome with the Community, when it's available?

Thank you🙏

I submitted a case with Kaspersky customer service as you shown in your post. Now to wait.

So I finally received the solution from Kaspersky support, and here's how it went. In their final reply, they mentioned that the virus analysts have added the Daz3D and Ren'Py exes to the "Trusted" group, but they also suggested I should change the category manually, and this conflicts with me. Why would I change the category manually if they added the programmes to the trusted group? Also, there's no reason for me to have this days-long email conversation with them for them to just tell me to add the exes manually. I could have done it myself days ago. Anyway, I launched them again, and Kaspersky added the exes to the untrusted group just as before. This is disappointing. So I manually added the exes to trusted group and successfully installed the programmes.

I guess the reason behind this is as good as Kaspersky; their application database is nowhere as large as something like Windows SmartScreen, so that's why Windows SmartScreen didn't warn about these EXEs because it already recognised them as safe, but KSN needs considerably more time to add popular applications as trusted when they update to newer versions.

Hello @Kuser7985Sh, 

1. Reading your email trail makes it look as if (you) did not read / follow our advice. 
2. Since receiving their "the virus analysts have added the Daz3D and Ren'Py exes to the "Trusted" group" advice have (you) checked that advice using Kaspersky's Threat Analysis Portal & OR Virus Total, bc we've just checked one of the exes & we'd be having *another* conversation with Kaspersky Customer Service / Kaspersky Virus Lab.
3. *And* this: "also suggested I should change the category manually"; it's a conversation YOU should be having with them; get them to clarify why - IF the exe is TRUSTED by Kaspersky / KSN -> the CATEGORY change will be / should be AUTOMATIC - why is *any* manual intervention required, make that make sense?  

Thank you🙏

One more thing. I didn't include my response to them in this forum, but I did everything they asked of me.

 

1. Provided the screenshots and detections from Kaspersky.

 

2. For them to investigate further, I send the exes in a password-protected archive as requested.

 

3. They requested the password even though I added it with the archive, so I sent the password again.

 

4. Waited for their reply.

 

5. And they said, "We have just received a reply from our virus analysts, and we were informed that the installers have been added to "Trusted." You can change the category manually." And now I would reply to them saying that it didn't work and Kaspersky still blocks the EXEs and ask them why would I have to do things manually when the process should be automatic with merely a database update.

 

As always, thank you for your help, Flood🐳+🐋.
