false positive, ignore it.

This is from the Norton forum

I have an application which we are about to distribute to a few thousand resellers and one of our test clients was running Norton 360. When he tried to pull the exe down from our site, Norton threw up alerts and he could not run the application. The error he is getting is a WS.Reputation.1 message which seems to indicate that Norton simply has never seen the app before (which makes sense as it is new).

Norton uses a cloud-based database that takes note of how many users have encountered the file before and declared it safe. (Hence the "Reputation" part in the name of this "detection", which isn't actually an infection alert but a flag to say Norton users don't know enough about the app in question.)

I use the pro version of Bitdefender, which is consistently rated as more rigorous than Norton, and it's never had an issue with any version of Passkey.
