Xfinity app security risk

My Xfinity app keeps reporting it's blocked a security risk on one of my computers. I have multiple computers, but it only reports this problem on one of them. They are all up to date Windows 11 computers. I believe the reason it sees this risk is because that computer is running an ftp app, which I have used for years, and know to be safe. How do I make the app stop reporting this machine as having a security risk.

I have 4 or 5 windows computers on my network. They are all cable connected. One of the computers keeps getting a security alert. I'm trying to understand why. I don't think there is any actual threat. I believe it might be due to an ftp app which I have running all the time on that machine. It just uploads some files to my website. The name of the app if Fling by NCH software.

The link I provided above has great information on how you can go view those notifications and even change the settings so you don't receive those alerts
