actions: This is the setting to enable or disable auto quarantine and auto upload.
0 - auto-quarantine OFF, auto-upload OFF
1 - auto-quarantine ON, auto-upload OFF

file_type: The only option is "executable".
suspicious_files: These are abnormal files.
threat_files: These are unsafe files.

lsassread (LSASS Read): Memory belonging to the Windows Local Security Authority process has been accessed in a manner that indicates an attempt to obtain Users’ passwords.
outofprocessallocation (Remote Allocation of Memory): A process has allocated memory in another process. Most allocations will only occur within the same process. This generally indicates an attempt to inject code or data into another process, which may be a first step in reinforcing a malicious presence on a system.
outofprocessapc (Remote APC Scheduled): A process has diverted the execution of another process’s thread. This is generally used by an attacker to activate a malicious presence that has been injected into another process.
outofprocesscreatethread (Remote Thread Creation): A process has created a new thread in another process. A process’s threads are usually only created by that same process. This is generally used by an attacker to activate a malicious presence that has been injected into another process.
outofprocessmap (Remote Mapping of Memory): A process has introduced code and/or data into another process. This may indicate an attempt to begin executing code in another process and thereby reinforce a malicious presence.
outofprocessoverwritecode (Remote Overwrite Code): A process has modified executable memory in another process. Under normal conditions, executable memory will not be modified, especially by another process. This usually indicates an attempt to divert execution in another process.
outofprocessunmapmemory (Remote Unmap of Memory): A process has removed a Windows executable from the memory of another process. This may indicate an intent to replace the executable image with a modified copy for the purpose of diverting execution.
outofprocesswrite (Remote Write to Memory): A process has modified memory in another process. This is usually an attempt to store code or data in previously allocated memory (see OutOfProcessAllocation), but it is possible that an attacker is trying to overwrite existing memory in order to divert execution for a malicious purpose.
outofprocesswritepe (Remote Write PE to Memory): A process has modified memory in another process to contain an executable image. Generally, this indicates that an attacker is attempting to execute code without first writing that code to disk.
overwritecode (Overwrite Code): The code residing in a process’s memory has been modified using a technique that may indicate an attempt to bypass Data Execution Prevention (DEP).
stackpivot (Stack Pivot): The stack for a thread has been replaced with a different stack. Generally, the system will only allocate a single stack for a thread. An attacker would use a different stack to control execution in a way that is not blocked by Data Execution Prevention (DEP).
stackprotect (Stack Protect): The memory protection of a thread’s stack has been modified to enable execution permission. Stack memory should not be executable, so usually this means that an attacker is preparing to run malicious code stored in stack memory as part of an exploit, an attempt which would otherwise be blocked by Data Execution Prevention (DEP).

dyldinjection (DYLD Injection): An environment variable has been set that will cause a shared library to be injected into a launched process. Attacks can modify the plist of applications like Safari or replace applications with bash scripts, causing their modules to be loaded automatically when an application starts.
maliciouspayload (Malicious Payload): A generic shellcode and payload detection associated with exploitation has been detected.
trackdataread (RAM Scraping): A process is trying to read valid magnetic stripe track data from another process. Typically related to point of sale systems (POS).
zeroallocate (Zero Allocate): A null page has been allocated. The memory region is typically reserved, but in certain circumstances, it can be allocated. Attacks can use this to setup privilege escalation by taking advantage of some known null de-reference exploit, typically in the kernel.

"memory_exclusion_list_v2": [
    "\\temp"
]

days_until_deleted: This is the setting for the number of days to retain a quarantined file. Quarantined files older than the set number of days will be automatically deleted. The minimum number of days is 14, the maximum number of days is 365. The "auto-delete" setting must be enabled.

docx_auto_uploading: This setting is currently not in use.
full_disc_scan: This is the setting to have
Cylance
analyze all executable files on disk to detect any dormant threats. This is the background threat detection setting.
0 - Disabled
1 - Run Recurring (performs a scan every nine days)
2 - Run Once (runs a full disk scan upon installation only)
kill_running_threats: This is the setting to kill processes and children processes regardless of the state when a threat is detected (EXE or DLL).
logpolicy: This setting is not used.
memory_exploit_detection: This is the setting to enable or disable the memory protection feature. This affects "memory_violation_actions" ("memory_violations" and "memory_violations_ext").

sample_copy_path: This is the setting to copy all file samples to a network share (CIFS/SMB). For example:
{
    "name": "sample_copy_path",
    "value": "\\\\server_name\\shared_folder"
}
scan_exception_list: This is the setting to exclude specific folders and subfolders from being scanned by full_disc_scan and watch_for_new_files. Set the value to the absolute path for the excluded files. For example:
{
    "name": "scan_exception_list",
    "value": [
        "c:\\temp"
    ]
}
scan_max_archive_size: This is the setting for the maximum archive file size (in MB) to be scanned. The value can be 0 to 150. If set to 0, then archive files will not be scanned. For example:
{
    "name": "scan_max_archive_size",
    "value": "0"
}
