What happens to the computer status once an active action is taken in response to suspicious objects?

When an active action is taken in response to suspicious objects, the computer status is updated to 'mitigated.' This reflects that the suspicious threat has been addressed in some capacity, implying that appropriate measures were taken to reduce or eliminate the risk associated with the object.

Mitigation often indicates that the threat has been contained or neutralized, which allows for a more secure operating environment. By moving the status to mitigated, it acknowledges the efforts made to manage the threat and signals that the system is no longer in immediate danger from that particular issue.

Other statuses, such as logging the action for future reference or remaining in a risk state, do not reflect the action taken and its intended outcome as clearly as the mitigated status does. An automatic update to secure might not occur immediately after an active response; the system could still require ongoing monitoring or additional actions to ensure complete security. Thus, 'mitigated' is the most accurate description of the computer status following an active response.
