4.6.7 Running processes
Running processes displays the running programs or processes on your computer and keeps ESET immediately and
continuously informed about new infiltrations. ESET Smart Security provides detailed information on running
processes to protect users with ESET Live Grid technology.
Process Image name of the program or process that is currently running on your computer. You can also use the
Windows Task Manager to see all running processes on your computer. You can open Task Manager by right-clicking
an empty area on the taskbar and then clicking Task Manager, or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc on your keyboard.
Risk level In most cases, ESET Smart Security and ESET Live Grid technology assign risk levels to objects (files,
processes, registry keys, etc.) using a series of heuristic rules that examine the characteristics of each object and
then weigh their potential for malicious activity. Based on these heuristics, objects are assigned a risk level from 1
Fine (green) to 9 Risky (red).
NOTE: Known applications marked as Fine (green) are definitely clean (whitelisted) and will be excluded from
scanning, as this will improve the scanning speed of on-demand computer scan or Real-time file system protection
on your computer.
Number of users The number of users that use a given application. This information is gathered by ESET Live Grid
technology.
Time of discovery Period of time since the application was discovered by ESET Live Grid technology.
NOTE: When an application is marked as Unknown (orange) security level, it is not necessarily malicious software.
Usually it is just a newer application. If you are not sure about the file, you can submit file for analysis to the ESET
Virus Lab. If the file turns out to be a malicious application, its detection will be added to one of the upcoming
updates.
Application name The given name of a program or process.
Open in a new window The running processes information will be opened in a new window.
