Confirming Learning Outcomes

After HSS completes learning on the servers associated with a whitelist policy, there may be some suspicious processes with insignificant characteristics that need to be confirmed. You can manually or let HSS automatically mark them as suspicious, malicious, or trustworthy processes.

You can configure how to confirm learning outcomes when creating a whitelist policy. The value of Confirm Learning Outcomes can be:

Automatically: Suspicious processes are automatically marked based on the application process intelligence.
Manually: You need to manually check and mark suspicious processes. This section describes the detailed procedure.

Prerequisites
