 * I am receiving notifications from Immunify that there is malware within the switch.
   php file of the uploads/redux folder.
 * Can you verify if this is a false positive?

 * I can confirm that our customizer code creates those files in the upload folder
   as part of our customizer support. Its contents should look like this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <?php
          class Redux_Customizer_Control_switch extends Redux_Customizer_Control {
            public $type = "redux-switch";
          }
       ```
   
 * I’ve never heard of those files as being flagged as malware. If you inspect the
   contents of that file and it’s as indicated above, then it’s definitely a false
   flag and you can ignore it (or report it to the company that offers this service
   and let them know it’s a false flag).
 * Good luck!
