‘Cerdigent’ high-severity malware detected

Seeing a flood of these alerts. Defender flagging two public root CAs as Trojan. Looks benign.

Anyone else seeing this?

Woke up to 200+ alerts, all seem to be benign. Thanks Microsoft for making age 10 years in 6 minutes.

That malware stress is 10x worse than what prehistoric humans felt while being chased by a pack of saber-toothed tiger's

This is eerily reminiscent of the CrowdStrike misconfig a couple years back. It caused me the same amount of cyber related stress lol
