F-Secure Security Cloud is an online reputation service that provides the latest analysis and reputation rating for programs, files and websites. If a questionable program or file is found during a scan, a query is sent to the Security Cloud to get the most recent reputation rating for it.
Based on the settings of your F-Secure security product, it will then use the information from Security Cloud (and if needed, further analysis) to determine whether to delete, quarantine or block the program or file.
The Security Cloud rating for the identified program or file indicates that it has code similar to backdoors - remote administration tools (RATs) allow a user to remotely access and control a device, such as a computer, server or mobile phone.
While such programs may be legitimate, and may be used for legitimate reasons by authorized administrators, they are also frequently used by attackers to gain control of a user's machine without their knowledge or authorization.
