Hi. Our security team informed us that some files of the FlexNet License Server were flagged by our virus scanner and were marked as maleware. Can anyone confirm these files really belong to the FlexNet License Server ?

The following files were detected as maleware:

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\FlexNet for Safe Software\restartService.bat
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\FlexNet for Safe Software\Start - Restart FME License Server.lnk
C:\Program Files\FlexServer\BatchFiles\restartService.bat

Taking a cursory glance, it looks like they're scripts to restart FlexLM. While they're likely not required for day to day running, might be required during maintenance or if issues arise
