PSCP.exe suspected false positive

[lhugnaur]

The file PSCP.exe was installed as part of X2Go client for Windows and does not appear to have been modified since September of 2019.

 

As with similar reported detections for pslip.exe and PuTTY I suspect that this may be a false positive as it has been labelled as Malware with an AI/machine learning number.

 

Please can you confirm if I should quarantine or ignore?
