About Heuristic Detections

Heuristic Analysis (also known as behavioral analysis) is an advanced type of antivirus technology that evaluates any potential threats by examining a suspected program's intended actions and effects on a computer system.

To examine a program's potential behavior, the antivirus program executes it in a self-contained, "virtual system" environment. This allows the antivirus program to evaluate how the program's behavior affects the virtual system, without compromising or endangering the user's actual system.

A program that appears to perform suspicious or potentially malicious actions will trigger a Heuristic Detection, such as the one above.
