What issue are you seeing?

There is a bug in your logic for determining network intrusion risks. I noticed that any task involving the download of a website database is automatically flagged as an intrusion. This is rigid and incorrect.

My project involves reading GitHub's official, publicly available website database to compile statistics on the number of Mac apps and other metrics. For websites like GitHub, their source code repository databases are inherently public and downloadable, specifically allowing third-party developers to analyze the characteristics of current open-source projects.

However, this process is being misidentified by your system as a website intrusion. This is a false positive. Your system should, at the very least, implement a whitelist or other heuristic methods to prevent this kind of misjudgment.
