I recently discovered in our corporate network Avast also performs a port scan to default gateway and tries to perform SSH and FTP login with some default credentials. Could be part of the smart shield, but is not really wanted behavior for all Avast clients.
Also read a post on Avast harvesting URL click data: https://www.extremetech.com/internet/305344-avasts-free-antivirus-harvests-all-your-clicks-sells-them-to-third-parties
Any thoughts on this or anyone else noticed this?
