Hello everyone,

I am encountering security issues with the SimpleHelp agent. I am receiving multiple alerts daily across our device fleet, and several agents are currently being quarantined, which forces me to perform complete reinstalls. Has anyone encountered this issue or have any suggestions for resolving it?

Yes,
I had to create an exclusion for:
C:\ProgramData\JWrapper-Remote Access
On all Bitdefender modules.
