    Hi Sandip,

    I would recommend to enable insight for symantec trusted & then check.

     

    This is a an explanation taken from www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO55250:

    • Symantec and Community Trusted

      This level skips files that are trusted by Symantec and the Symantec Community.

    • Symantec Trusted

      This level skips only files that are trusted by Symantec.

    Symantec Community are all the users of Symantec products. So the files signed by Community as Trusted, are in the category "Community Trusted".

    Please keep in mind that the suggested security option is "Symantec Trusted" from Symantec.

    may the file downloaded from the site does not have reputation. submit the file to security response.

    also how did you get to know that the file is infected?

    Hello Sandip,

     

    I'd suggest to have a technical case created for this issue and provide he above link to security response team.

    If possible install an unmanged client and check if you're able to access that link.

     

    Awaiting update!!

     

    Cheers!

    Either your symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1 RU1 is not updated or the update for the virus infected file haven`t relesed.... for SEP.

     

    You are right that Nortan safe show its Infected but it all depend on the GIN.

    OR may be the file won`t be infected just the signature or some other matched criteria woulkd had showed IT .
