local translation of the term 'untrusted'

[Richard van der Luit]

Hi all,
Because the term 'untrusted' (as in 'untrusted connection' and
'untrusted local file') is actually a new word, only used in
compu-world, how do you all translate this to your own languish?
I am on a quest here, coz every dutch term i use doesn't actually catch
it...*panic*

from wikipedia:
The term, "untrusted" is used exclusively in the field of computer
science and information security to denote code from an unknown source
that may be potentially harmful to a system. It is distinguished from
"untrustworthy" or "distrusted" in that the code may be useful and
completely benign, whereas the terms "untrustworthy" and "distrusted"
suggest something about the subject (whether it is a person or thing)
that suggests that the person or thing is not to be trusted.(...) An
"untrusted" code however, is simply code that has not met predefined
requirements to be trusted, e.g., completed an authentication protocol
to verify that it came from a trusted source

(Is there an other list to ask questions like this btw?)

I don't know Dutch, so this is just an idea. Does it sound strange to
break it up into two words and call it potentially harmful or
dangerous? From the online dictionaries it sounds like that translates
to: mogelijk gevaarlijk/schadelijk.

Also, some languages have their own email lists, but this is kind of a
general question, as it probably applies to a lot of languages.

That means 'potential dangerous/damaging' in dutch; herein lies my
problem...it isn't potential dangerous/damaging in itself, it is just
unknown whether it is or not. It could be, could be not ('potential
dangerous/damaging' at least suggest we have suspicions it can be, which
is not so per se). It is so illusive it makes the Scarlet Pimpernel easy
to catch!

How about just niet-vertrouwde? It seems to have a good amount googits
related to technology. Maybe a lot of it is *gasp* automatic
translation, but it's probably worth considering.
