The mferkdk.sys process is a system driver utility that is implemented by the McAfee VirusScan Enterprise software into the Windows-based system as one of the SYS driver components of the VSCore Code Analysis Driver module. This means the mferkdk.sys file is deployed into the system to assist the McAfee VirusScan Enterprise application in integrating its embedded virus scanning and code analysis functionalities while actively running in the system to monitor and detect possible malicious programs that have penetrated the Windows servers and client systems of the network. The mferkdk.sys file is placed in the system upon the installation of the McAfee VirusScan Enterprise software, which also means the mferkdk.sys process is bundled into the installer distribution packages of the McAfee VirusScan Enterprise system security tool.
