Answer

  • The snapshot creation is silent to the end user when Attack Probability is low, and no alert notification is generated.
  • When 20 or more files are found with this unknown file extension, then it is assumed as an attack.
  • The attack probability will change from low to moderate and callhome.arw.activity.seen EMS/ASUP alert notification will be generated.
