Data sharing tab

The Configuration: Data sharing tab is only available for the Manager. It includes the following options:

Upload malicious files

If Enabled, your system will notify the VMware backend about its detection of a malicious artifact by uploading the artifact content. Sharing this information will help us and the security community, with very little risk of exposing confidential or sensitive information. You can configure at what level of maliciousness the file is shared with the other options on this tab.
