Allows you to manage Traps features and perform advanced troubleshooting on the local endpoint from a command line interface. For more information, see Cytool for Windows.
Unknown files for analysis
Traps stores unknown files to send to the Endpoint Security Manager in the C:\ProgramData\Cyvera\Temp folder. After the Endpoint Security Manager submits a file to WildFire®, the Traps agent deletes the file from the Temp folder.
In some cases, third-party Antivirus (AV) applications raise an alert for this folder. If this occurs, we recommend that you whitelist this folder in the third-party AV application.
