Viruses often use real-time compression algorithms to attempt to circumvent virus
filtering. The IntelliTrap feature blocks real-time compressed executable files and
pairing them with other malware characteristics.

ImportantBecause IntelliTrap identifies such files as security risks and may incorrectly block
safe files, consider quarantining (not deleting or cleaning) files when you enable
IntelliTrap. (See Customize malware remedial actions.) If users regularly exchange real-time compressed executable files, disable IntelliTrap.
IntelliTrap uses the virus scan engine, IntelliTrap Pattern, and IntelliTrap Exception
Pattern.
For macOS agents, IntelliTrap is not supported.
